Remember

Published on Fri, 3rd Jul 2026 at 00:15

by William Troup

I came upon a journey, but I couldn't tell you where; I've tried in vain to remember, but all I see is despair! I've slept through many a night hoping the dream would come, yet further did I fall, and all that remained is scared ... I came upon a

by William Troup

It came upon the high tide, here, we've nowhere to hide; now afar, on the other side, rests an ocean so short of lies! Poseidon dreams upon the storm we've begat from stolen trees; what it leaves? we cannot believe! ... as frozen is the forgotten truth ...

by William Troup

Love did never consume me, nor take its toll on time; Her flowers bloomed in gentle winds that yearned for me to begin! My love did scream in glee! yet scream of me in greed? My ghastly fears prevail, with tears, as my heart does longingly dream ...

A jest beyond your doors yields little chance of succour; what of solace upon the floor? this voyage awaits the shore ...

Heart at Play

Published on Mon, 20th Apr 2026 at 22:02

by William Troup

Heart at play; gambolled away to beseech the day where we shall stay! On petal dreams, we lay in silence; a blissful stream did bring us thirst, yet not the first, as home flailed away with the wind. Heart at play; betroved away to

Fear Me Not

Published on Fri, 17th Apr 2026 at 23:56

by William Troup

Fear me not, as I am me, and you are thee, as heart separates to echos of three; heart, a fickle thing, clings to hope it's yet to grasp; mind, a backseat, begins again and hopes to last; soul, a wayward thing, begets the toll the lover cast. Fear me not,

Slay the Dragon!

Published on Tue, 14th Apr 2026 at 22:02

by William Troup

Slay the dragon, flail thy sword, strike his heart; where doth thou reveal the reins? what of fire that consumes thy mind? dawn still catches the eye of fame! Merriment conveyed, wasting away, in silent days; noon fractured from violent plays! Slay the

by William Troup

Hollow stone, left alone; bones broken by eggshell words. Hollow stone, beating tones; known faces through every bird. Hollow stone, vacant thrown; sewn rivers to hopeful thirds. Hollow stone, left alone ...

by William Troup

There was a part of me that loved you, there was a part that died; as suddenly as you came, my heart did part the blood, and through the path, I walked, with no rhythm, and no sight, as the walls came crashing down; that part of me still loves you ...

A Stillness Found My Form

Published on Sun, 1st Feb 2026 at 23:59

by William Troup

A stillness found my form, flailing silently away; fame, a fickle food, conferred the chosen day. Crumbs of graceless photos furnish the scrolling plays, and then came the hawks to denude the welcome stay! Pieces of my soul adrift, yet quietly, my

Death Is a Common Fight

Published on Sun, 1st Feb 2026 at 02:09

by William Troup

Death is a common fight we find within the light; do you jest? or stay your hand? an ocean reeps the floor, with little chance of succour; and what of tomorrow? Death is a common fight we crown before the night; do you prevail? or flaunt your coronet?

Her Smile

Published on Wed, 29th Oct 2025 at 00:15

by William Troup

Effulgent, her smile; soft and warm, where sunlight wraps its soul ... behold! Weary, yet dogged, the moon does ache; what of her day will grace this heart? Vast, yet sewn, these swathes of trees; deeper from me, her lies do bleed. Effulgent, her smile; sweet, but worn,

Why Am I So Different?

Published on Fri, 5th Sep 2025 at 01:00

by William Troup

Why am I so different? Is it my mind, heart, or soul? When will this madness end? What will be the toll? I am further away from my youth, and fewer days latch to any sense; yet onward, I continue; Why am I so different? I am shunned by differing

Hollow Dreams

Published on Wed, 20th Aug 2025 at 16:20

by William Troup

Hollow dreams awaken me from an anxious sleep; opaque skies cloud the arcane sun, and what looms is crushed beneath my soul. Velvet rays dry my eyes, as yearning beats no more; madness lingers, but not what's seen, and cerulean skies cast the pastures

Eyes

Published on Sun, 25th May 2025 at 21:52

by William Troup

No eye, for this eye; as for me, you are blind; as unraveled as the sheets that await before my sleep. No rivulets seep from my skin, no fallacies reign in the deep; for time is a war of attrition, nothing more than a tradition; and what of me, you ask? my
