- I Miss You
  
  Posted at 10:53 am by a quiet man, on November 20, 2021
  I wonder about the hours
  
  reaching into night.
  
  I think about the full moon
  
  and always hope you are nearby,
  
  I can sense your shadow.
  
  I went to a play last night.
  
  it wasn’t yours to see.
  
  I still looked for you
  
  everywhere I could.
  
  I knew where to find you,
  
  and would only discover no one
  
  in your place.
  
  I drove along the highway in my life.
  
  I went to our spot
  
  hoping you might be there
  
  knowing you wouldn’t be,
  
  but I waited.
  
  I woke this morning in tears.
  
  I don’t know really
  
  an answer,
  
  how long may I drive holding on in tears.
  
  I don’t want to anymore.
  
  I am afraid of what I will do
  
  when tears come no more.

  I fought hard to know the outcome of loss
  
  a moment alone
  
  the world moved past my sight
  
  and I felt sorrow only my own.
  
  Would not, cannot any longer
  
  find peace inside the depths
  
  of a lonely heart.
  
  A shadow remains
  
  yet today is sunlight ahead.

- Sylvia Plath
  
  Posted at 12:47 pm by a quiet man, on January 8, 2019
  I wrote this because I struggle with my own depression, and I know that Sylvia is and was revered. What i don’t know is why or how our society has come centuries without understanding what depression is and what mental health and what matters to the sanctity of our lives. What i don’t know is why tragedy is the only way people can seemingly come to understand the identity of another.
  
  What determines legacy – exhaustion or raw talent and how do we find a balance between the two?
  
  This is for Sylvia, because I picture you in your state of mind in this what probably was your back yard one beautiful afternoon – a portrait in a series that contains smiles as well as sadness …
