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.

Tim Baker
From across the room I saw her standing
Fate in the form of a mutual friend threw us together
The simularities were endless
I saw something different in her
That day in the garden
So happy and care free
Completely lost in the moment
Exactly where we were supposed to be
I fell faster than most
Didn't know where it came from
It just appeared
I know she felt it too
It was her eyes that gave it away
But now things have changed
And our connection is lost
She covered herself in a blanket of confusion
Unwilling to let go
Everyday without her becomes that much harder
But I could never just be her friend
A great distance divides us
And every waking moment I am gone
I'll long for the day I can stop worrying
Because I know what I want and it'll be gEm that I have
But until that very moment comes
I want to crawl away and never look upon daylight again
Everything is a reminder of you.

"Tim, this one is pretty good. I like the structure, or non-structure, I should say. The only thing I find confusing is that u dont say why she turned away. Its not even inferred. I think it would be much more powerful if u could leave the reader guessing, rather than clueless, about what might have happened. You are talented...keep writing!" -- Karen, USA.
