Poetry that Speaks to Your Heart
stupid.silly.love.mode is a raw and deeply personal poetry collection by Angela Troy, capturing the messy, beautiful, and often painful reality of love in all its forms.
Written across decades, this collection explores the many faces of love—from the intoxicating rush of new connection to the quiet devastation of unrequited feelings, from betrayal and longing to fleeting moments of hope and healing. Each poem invites readers into an honest, unfiltered emotional landscape shaped by lived experience.
At its heart, stupid.silly.love.mode is the voice of a hopeless romantic—someone who has loved deeply, lost profoundly, and still dares to believe in connection. The collection reflects on what it means to give your heart fully, even when love is imperfect, unreturned, or fleeting.

the ache of “almost”
the sting of betrayal
the nostalgia of memories that linger
the quiet strength found in letting go
This is a poetry book for anyone who has ever felt too much, loved too hard, or struggled to move on. It offers both a mirror and a companion—reminding readers they are not alone in their emotions.
Whether you are seeking comfort, connection, or simply the beauty of honest words, stupid.silly.love.mode will stay with you long after the final page.

Why I Write
I have always felt deeply, and poetry became the only place where that depth could exist without apology. It holds the versions of me shaped by love—first love, lost love, enduring love, and the kind that was never returned.
I write poetry to give a voice to the emotions we often keep hidden—love, heartbreak, longing, and hope. It’s how I process what I’ve felt and connect with others who have felt it too.
