Premium Member A hundred years ago, just a hundred years
A hundred years ago, just a hundred years, people like us walked this earth, with the same heartbeats, they felt the same sunlight, breathed the same air, with their worries, their small joys and pains, they fell in love and lost love in the same way, they cried over things that might make us laugh today, and laughed at things we...

Premium Member I Have Lived A Hundred Different Lives -
I have lived a hundred different lives - Each as different as water is to stone. I have dreamed a few far-away dreams To discover that they were mine alone. I have felt at times a trace of love But was shown again that theirs was untrue. I have often tried to bury the past To find that it rarely stays inhumed. I...

A Hundred Reasons, But Only One You
You were a stranger, just a name, Yet now my heart is not the same. Through fights and laughs, through highs and lows, You are the one my heartbeat knows. I never asked for much in life, But found in you both joy and strife. For every tear, there’s twice the grace, For every loss, your warm embrace. A hundred reasons why I...

A Hundred Poems - Xiii
Beneath your feet, what lies there still, A thorn of love's lost tenderness, Or shadow longing for slumber's chill? Oh, my love, star of shining grace, Your light illuminates my way, A journey from death to life's embrace. In this misadventure of heart and love, Which life does not endure and tend? Our fractured feelings, spent and shoved. Soothe me, love, with your loving...

Premium Member A Hundred Things I Wish I'D Said
You are more than what they said…. Savage beasts feed on your dread Escape before your heart crumbles, There is no picking up the rumble. In time, your mind becomes jumbled You are more than what they made you feel…. This body is yours their hands do not belong. Eat from the corners, what a waste, you’re still thrown away. You are more...

Forgive me  my madness, eccentricities,         my faults my tenderness      that pain --> a thorn inside my brain and skin so human  that it hurts! My eyes of marble   so hardly knew softness; a sight        beyond light and that thumping pain           within the cargo vessel held; lifetimes...
