Wakefield

long is the night

but long are the shadows

in crepuscular light

out by the meadows.

we sit and we stare

from hill tops up high,

breathe in the air,

gaze up to the sky.

the city is wide

the city is small

there's nowhere to hide

there's nowhere at all.

North

one beating moment

and then the next.

no bridge connects these streams.

there lies

simply a collection of moments

in time

will i remember this moment

when i am old?

or will i be stuck

in the forgotten past?

what's with the poems?

firstly, i like poems. they're fun to read and fun to write. in many ways poetry is similar to coding. each consist of a collection of individual lines which, on their own, are relatively meaningless, but together create something more. there are rules and subtle differences can have a great impact. both can be so beautiful.
