Together Forever, the face I will see . I love you now, I loved you then, I’ll love you tomorrow, I’ll love you when . When I wake in the morning, When I slip in to sleep, I loved when we met, It’s a love I will keep . Even when you leave, When you walk out that door, I’ll love you then, Deep inside of my core . This love I can’t help, It will destroy me I know, It’s a love you don’t feel, I wish you could show . I want us forever, I want us to last, I want us to have, A love that’s been cast . Together forever, I want us to be, I need you I know, Without you I’m not me . This love I can’t loss, Even when it causes my end, The letters on my gravestone, ‘Please come and mend’. This love is so tragic, In my last moment of life, I will see it forever, Eternally my strife . Written by Tom Baker .© 'There is only a very thin line between genius and insanity, this is measured only on sucess; I am proud to be considered an under-achieving genius'. |

Being an old songwriter myself I'd have to agree with Sven...it's got a real musical flow. Tremendously sad all the same....maybe for the blues! |

Tom darling boy this is an absolutely wonderful piece from you. I love it, The flow and the structure of this is excellent, and the rhythm and lyric is perfect for a Blues song, I can see this being sung and a smoky bar somewhere by a sultry singer. Very well written This is exquisite writing darling absolutely exquisite, I love it utterly utterly Love and warm stuff As always Mushy Breathe through the heat of our desire |

Oh my god; thankyou all so much ... i never expected so many of you lovely people to read and reply to this . Your all so kind, I truly wish that I was a good enough singer to put the poem to music - I'm afraid my voice sounds a little something like a crocodile mixed with a parrot (quite a funny thought actually) . Anyhows, thanks again your kind words as always light up my heart . L.of.L. Tom.
