Turns Poems - Poems about Turns

When truth is reversed into lies, a silent cry takes its place. And when this happens, prayer becomes the only weapon against the cruelty of the world. A cry the world refuses to hear. A pain that goes unnoticed. A silent cry in a solitary room— and yet, a flicker of hope, a thought still blooming beyond the ache. Trust becomes a fragile thread— easily frayed once...

Each morning drifts like mist— soft, uncertain, but somewhere in its hush, I feel the weight of something turning dark nearby. I once imagined this place would be still, that the walls would not echo with things unsaid. But peace, it seems, is not something we always share. Patterns repeat— whispers circling like wind in a cage. The days loop like shadows on the same old path, a wheel that...

It hits the tongue without warning Burns the throat where it once soothed Makes breathing feel like drowning You gasp but nothing moves. Like love When it shifts without a sign Leaves two hearts beating strangely Out of sync & out of time. The light that once felt certain Starts to flicker & then to fade And every step you take alone Feels colder than the...

I picture you on the sea of roses, A crimson tide where beauty closes Around your form, a fragrant grace, The softest blush upon your face. Each velvet petal, gently laid, A path of love, meticulously made. The ocean's breadth, a lover's dream, Reflecting back your tender gleam. No waves of worry, just calm and deep, Where secrets of the heart can keep. You are...

At first, it was heaven — pure and bright. Then came the cry, A single tear that swelled into a river, And from that flood, hell was unleashed. Her world shattered, Suffering took root deep within her soul. She was never the same. Locked away in her room, Her mind a storm of questions — Where did it all go...

No one told me the moment you parted. My disheartened heart left the room the moment I turned the corner, and saw his golden badge as he nodded in comforting dismay. That day My heart learned the rhythm of grief Slow Sickly The kind that brings you past your knees, and drives you six feet underground. Who needs two burials in one day?...

I’ll slam with much more originality than that cadence you chose to copy. Who are you? Where is your voice? It’s a fixed game of multiple choice. You sound just like everyone else, a rhythm that’s played out but still sells. Left out too long the ice simply melts, you ache to forget such repetitive bells. I’ll slam...

A cat sits on a chair and hovers over me as I lie in bed. It’s December 31st as a soft rain falls. As I get up I ask myself if this is an ending or beginning. I’ve been back in town full-time for five years but embrace memories of highways travelled throughout the Midwest when I worked for road construction crews. Now I’m left with my poems. Bare limbs in the...

Morning Turns the Page Night lies softly across the beach, as delicate as a black, silken scarf, while, underneath its dark veil, the sea is blue tissue paper with whitened finger tips wrapping an early morning present. Then night, like nature’s magician, magically removes it’s black disguise allowing early morning light to reveal its gift - an awakening beach washed by...

Why, is not it enough? _________________ O man, ye just cannot afford to be A mute pair of banks on meditation Forever watching the river flow by, Nor yet a stone getting grounded as sand, Ye better watch this life of yours pass by And...

Sunshine on the deserts Snow high up on the mounts The world keeps on turning As if nothing else now counts Footprints on the shorelines Are quick washed out to sea Three ships left on the morn In search of a new country Leaders of the cities Watch people leave in droves They've heard some have set camp In amongst the mango groves Farm lands still stand...
