ABOUT
THE AUTHOR
My name is Tim Baker and I'am 21 years old. I live in Adelaide Australia, but soon I leave for Europe. I have been developing my writing/art since high school and hope to acheive something with my work. At the moment I'am trying to write a novel amongst other things as well as my "text art". My reason for writing is to provoke extension of thought and have an impact. So please either love or hate my work, just don't sit on the fence. [October 2002]

-The End- Tim Baker
The water rippled a murky green, Chilling wind blew sand into our eyes, In contrast the sun shone proudly, As if to mock me, Like all those whom I knew would celebrate this moment, I didn’t want to push you away, You were the one person willing to give what I had been looking for, Yet I succeeded again in bringing pain to our hearts, It wasn’t because I don’t love you, If I ever doubted then I know the answer now, We laughed, played along, enjoyed a final kiss! As if it wasn’t even happening, Maybe we didn’t want to believe it, I know the next time my eyes meet yours, I will want to entwine our bodies once more, But how can I expect you to trust me your heart a second time? The great wall shall stand between us, And I’m not sure we will ever be ready to climb and conquer, However it happens, Please one day, let me have you again.
