Craig Turner Poems

We test our goodbyes,
In the mirror each day,
Dont look yourself within the eyes,
Cant face a new surprise.
...

I think your missing the point,
Lips up to the sky,
As she found out your lies,
No turning back,
...

What was once full of colour,
Reflects back in black and white,
Little letters lodged away,
As if to be found some day,
...

The raptureous applause you deserve,
Doesn't go unnoted,
The strength to leave the familiarity,
Shouldn't go unnoticed,
...

I havent felt the urge,
To self destruct when I should,
I cant shake you loose,
Maybe I just dont want to,
...

Rush to buy flowers,
The statement on sentiment,
Suggesting new horizons,
Salvaging blossoms to resurrect sorrow,
...

She’s An Old Man

She’s an old man,
Murderee and junkie
...

Its sad that you stand out as a good guy,
Amongst the repentant and vengeful,
You know your blue,
Scattered through fields of red,
...

I must reiterate this is co-written with the lovely and talented Sara Tehrani.............................

I don’t think he knows his affect on my smile
...

Walking with your thoughts,
A steady pace of ideas,
Obstacle then another in time with the birdsong,
Overwhelming imagination,
...
