Sorrows-Troilet

how sorrows rape my helpless smiles

and darkness drapes my lonely days

a lost soul walking miles and miles

how sorrows rape my hopeless smiles

frayed and torn from tearing trials  

and endless wait for shinning rays

how sorrows rape my hopeless smiles

and darkness drapes my lonely days

Simply amazing, I love this. Simple form.

[Wondering Mind]

Thank you so much!
Yes, the Troilet is a simple but nice flowing form.
I'm glad you enjoyed it.

[Unspoken poet]

i don't think I could write something like that. I love reading form writes

[Wondering Mind]

Why not give it a try? I'm sure you'll come up with something beautiful

[Unspoken poet]

it has to look like that form right? with the repeating lines?

[Wondering Mind]

Yes, something in the line of
ABaAabAB
Where the capitals are the main refrains (repeats) and the small letters follow the rhyme scheme

[Unspoken poet]

i'll try it, looks like fun

[Wondering Mind]

Great! I'm sure I'll enjoy reading it!

[Unspoken poet]

well i think I did it, It's called "Gloom"

[Rick Puetter]

Dear Wondering Mind,

This is very nice indeed, and the Troilet form is so seldom used. And the use of the word "rape" is wonderfully descriptive.

Fine work. High marks.

Best regards,

Rick
