THE QUIET MAN DEPARTS

avatar
(Edited)

In the depth of the night, one soul departs
In the most gruesome way possible, not the kind it deserves
It didn't leave in peace, nature didn't take place
It didn't leave a mark on us easy to erase
The quiet man left, yes he left for good
Too punctually than intended, of course he was given a push.

The quiet man left and behind him stayed his dreams
Being unable to follow him as he passed his bounds
Ah, you see, the quiet man wasn't so quiet
He had his actions to speak his part, not some petty words.
His bounds weren't as you'd expect from a quiet one
For his whole life was an act of giving, in every way possible.

The quiet man fought battles, battles that weren't just his
He fought for us all tirelessly in his own silent ways
The scorching sun wasn't an issue because he brought light to our darkest nights.

The quiet man went unnoticed his entire life
Not acknowledged for his sacrifice always behind the scenes
But now, as the noble soul leaves, discordance arises
And deafening screams fill the air as the quiet man departs

This is absolutely beautiful. It gives a deep reflection of the legacy we leave behind. The quiet man wasn't quiet after all, his actions were loud.

Exactly, this is just the whole point of this poem.. He wasn't quiet after all.. Thanks for your comment

They say action speak louder than words, I think the quiet man was so intelligent than how the people seems him as, that is why his leaving was remarkable.

Awesome poems 🥰
