The Poetry of Talya

Talya is one of the most awesome people I have had the priviledge of knowing. She is a hopeless romantic and writes beautifully as you will see. She'd love to hear feedback from her poems--email her at Taldarling@hotmail.com

Nobody and No one

Nobody and No one
What a pair

Nobody and No one
How unfair

Quite rare infact
They wonder together
Hand in hand

One is small
The other is large

Their thoughts are different,
they can't be compared
Nobody's there
There's No one here.
Together they will be
Hand in hand until the end

Nobody and No one
Quite a pair

The Silent Rose

My love is like a silent rose
Waiting silently to show the world it's beauty

  I sit and wait
Night and day
Each sunrise my love growing

  In the darkness of the night,
I wish upon the many stars
For our love to be discovered.

In the day, when the sun shines brightly
I feel the warmth and hope
To one day feel the same warmth from your love and admiration

Happily Ever After With You

So what's this all about?
Is it simply nature's way of keeping us alive
Or is there something more to what I feel for you?

  Are all those childhood fairy tales
finally coming true...or am I playing
make believe, and pretending when there's
nothing really there

  Is this what we call puppy love and
teenage fantasies...or is this
what I've been looking for...

  Are you sure what everyone else has been;
will you be fun for a while, but become
a memory as quickly as you've become a
reality?

  The answers I'll only know as time
goes by...but darling...
when I look into your eyes I pray we never let go

  Hold me close for as long as we both live,
Please make the fairy tales come true...
for wouldn't it be grand to live
Happily Ever After with one another?

Those Words

As I walk in the rain I feel the brisk air across my skin,
It stings a little,
Not as much as words.

  I hear them every night,
They haunt me,
Like the shadow of my past.
I try to go back, back to where I used to be,
But the light that used to guide me is now gone.

  At night, all I can feel is your breath rasping softly against my face
As you say the things you said to me that day.

  I had never heard your cries for help until that night,
And even then it was too late.

  Suddenly I realized how much pain you were in,
I could almost feel it creeping upon me,
As I heard those words

  Those word you said during the last moments of your life....
I feel the sting
I feel the pain
I feel your words.

We Look Away

I look away
I turn around
I hide from your face

  You pull me back
You say hello
I just want to cry

  I feel the pain
So do you
We look away
We turn around

  A Test of Skill, A Test of Personality

Our lives are filled with ups and downs,
it's nothing but a simple test.

  A test of skill,
a test of personality....
The test of life
the hardest one to pass.

  Our minds are filled with tons of thoughts,
and yet not half are truly ours.
it's nothing but a simple test.

  A test of skill,
a test of personality....
The test of life
the hardest one to pass.

  Our universe is full of people,
yet there's only one that can truly understand us.
it's nothing but a simple test.

  A test of skill,
a test of personality....
The test of life
the hardest one to pass.

  Our eyes can see so many things,
yet the worst are remembered best.
it's nothing but a simple test.

  A test of skill,
a test of personality....
The test of life
the hardest one to pass.

  I think of all these things,
yet tommorrow I will not remember what I wrote.
I wonder if i will ever understand, the thing that we call life.

  Counting the Stars

I count the stars one by one,
I connect them ever so carefully,
Soon enough I see your face.

  I feel the wind across my lips.
I remember your soft lips touching mine,
As our true feelings arouse from everlasting slumber.

  A leaf brushes against my leg...
I remember your soft, yet tender hands across my skin.
  Sometimes I wonder who you are,
I wonder why I feel this way,
I tell myself that it's nothing but a dream...
Yet I know the truth....That it's meant to be

  < aname="wonder">I Wonder...

I have to ask myself what the truth
of all this is.
I must begin to wonder how all this
can be.
Would I feel the same with anybody else,
or is there something that you have,
that contains the secrets to my heart.
I need to stop depending,
stop needing you so much,
I wouldn't mind loving you...maybe
I do, but is it on my own accord?
I'd like to know your thoughts,
I'd love to know how you feel,
are you as sure as you seem to be?
or are you like me...hoping...
wondering and questioning
hoping never to find a contradiction
and yet always expecting one, knowing
it'd only tear me up inside.

  The Stories of Your Pain

I look into your eyes
And what is that I see?

I see nothing but backness,
A cover, a sheet of nothingness.
You're hiding something aren't you?

   Tell me.
tell me what it is that is so secret
That even your eyes are blank and silent.

  Tell me.
What could be so painful,
That your eyes no longer want to cry the many tears,
Theyhidebehind that darkness?

  Tell me
Tell me the stories of your pain...
Tell me what you have to hide...

  Rivers stream with your uncried tears,
Birds sing the songs of your unheard complaints<.P>  Tell me,
Tell me what you have to hide

  I look into your eyes,
What is that I see?

  So many Times...

So many times I've looked around,
so many times I've searched
so many times I've looked around, and
so many times I've found nothing
Nothing but a darkness in the truth of the utter reality of life

  Now I look around,
and I search so many times,
I look and there's nothing...
then... I search, there's
You

  How could this be?
The memories of you...
And me still haunt my mind
every second of the day,
and when I lay down to sleep,
your face is all I see.
I look around and see all that's left
are the bittersweet memories of our unspoken love,

   If I could see you once more
I know finally I'd find the love that ihave searched for so many times.
So many times I had a chance,
But failure's all I got
Now, I know the sound of your voice whispering in my ear
Would only mean one thing
my final triumph,
one that is long past due,
one that I've waited for so very long,
one that only my imagination can conjure

  I pray to see you face,
have you standing in front of me once more,
maybe now I'd say "I  love You".
I know that love is strong
For I feel it caress me gently as I speak,
I lay myself down to sleep and all I see is you...
Goodnight my darling...goodnight

   My Anger

I look up at the starry night sky;I see your face smiling down at me
I smile back, but you're not looking at me, you're looking at he!
I want to be mad, but I can't be.  I love you too much
I don't want to love you anymore!

  There was a time when I thought about you night and day, a time whe I loved you so
very much
I still do, believe me, I do, but...
I can't do this anymore it is tearing me apart
I can't do it
Let go of me!
There was a time when I would have fallen readily into your strong arms,
But that time is no longer,
My love has not died, but I have
You have killed me,
Say a prayer young man,
For you will soon see the devil in hell
