Heart.Mind.Soul
Jack Turner Jul 2010
All that I can think of are the miles and miles.
My days are spent waiting
For her to roll back down that road.
She came into my life.
I helped her save her life
And then she left my life,
Back to the boy who caused the down in her life.
Is this sad or is this funny?
How much I love you, I mean.
How can I hurt for you
After all you have done to me?
I don't want anymore
But all I do is go back running.
I don't want anymore hurt
But all I do is wait for the truth
That I know is not coming.
How can I sit around and love
A girl that I cannot
Trust.

In Need Of A Muse
Jack Turner Feb 2012
From sun-up to sunset I find you in my head.
I sit and spin, thinking in circles -
None of which is of any benefit.

I long for your taste and I need your touch,
You in my life is a piece of luck.
I see your face burning in my vision,
I hear your voice singing in my ear,
I taste your body on my tongue,
But most of all I feel your grace upon my soul.

If I've ever needed a muse, it might be you.

look, I love you
Jack Turner Jul 2010
I can't help how I feel
I can't help what you create in me
You make the best in me
Come out and shine for you
And though you may say you've never done anything
Its everything that you do
That makes me love you
Want to be with you
Sit and stare at the sun
And watch it go down
Til it comes up again
On us two
Baby, its you
And thats all I know
You are the happiness in my life

Still For You
Jack Turner Aug 2010
despite it all
and the truth I try to repel
I am still stuck under your spell

I love you
Each and every day
Like you were my life blood
I wish to set free

But that isn't me
As I try to keep you near to me

I love you
Heart and soul
Mind and all
Focused on you
without a break
and no escape

I'm yours until I decide to die
And I hope that one day
You can be mine

What You've Done To Me
Jack Turner Jul 2010
What you've done to me
Could be described as a catastrophe
And what I've done to you
Makes me feel sickly

And when I think on how things sound
And how they've finally started towards right
They can't help but turn around
And run as if in a fear driven flight

I've done and continue to do all I can do
To be there for you
I've made my feelings lie
Until all I've got again is pain inside

Maybe someday I hope you'll see
What exactly you've done to me

You with Me
Jack Turner Aug 2010
Here I sit
And think of you and me
In a relationship
And of whether or not
It would work
And then all of my love pours
Into my head
And I realize its not even a question
So here I sit
With my glass of wine in hand
And write
Until the day you are ready to be with me

Number Four, could be 3
Jack Turner Sep 2010
You tease me
Ever in my head
And very much in my reach
Though unable to grasp
Drawing me in to have some fun
Using fishing lines to see if I bite
But when I move on in
Fancying a piece
You laugh and signal no
Tangling my senses from my nose to my toes
Leaving my brain in shambles
Scrambled eggs are more easily righted
Than this mess you have left

Treat me fair
And believe me, you'll live the life
More than your mind can fix

I gave you a chance
I'll give you just one more
But I can't let this go forever
So I'll try to speak now
Though I may forever hold my peace
But as long as you walk this earth without me
I won't ever find peace

Sing For The Future
Jack Turner Feb 2011
I've never seen anyone, nor felt anyone, who made me feel the way you do.

And I swear, on sight of you, words fail, and writing dries up, 'til I'm left with nothing to tell you.

Only how I feel.

So, in lieu of that, I will combine the two,
That which I wish I could say about you, and all I wish I could write to describe you,
Into which I will sing about you,
Because I hope that maybe one day you will hear this song I sing,
Written about you, and only you,

And then maybe one day you will realize
Just how much you meant to me.
Jack Turner Sep 2010
I feel so bad for being so good at what I do
I made the choice to go make sure she was still mine
Pulled her back, gave her another dose to keep her under my spell
Then it was time to head home where
One came to greet me, and another ran to meet me

At first things were ice blue, now they're fire red
First she began to slide away, now tied to the string on my finger
Her and the other two, all stuck in my head
I thought I would delight when I became you
And I do, though my conscience also has some things to say

I want to be you, Something I really pursued
But guilt breeds deep down inside
Please tell me what you would do
Or is that for me to answer now
Seeing as we are the same
Do I pick and play one, or do I pray on all of them
How much can my conscience take
Playing two, then three against each other, waiting for the breakdown
Next thing I know I'll be going straight down, thinking Am I Ok
Should I just ride along and see how things go
Or stick with number one and try to cauterize the wounds

I wish it could all be that easy, you three agreed to please me
Though for good reason it doesn't work that way
So I guess I'll just do it on my own
And do my best to hide each from the other
Down this path I plan to go
And if guilt takes over, or one gets discovered
I guess it'll be too late to apologize now
So let's see where it goes

— The End —
