art hidden in plain sight
every heart
carries an art
some carry the art
of masking the aches
some of masking love
behind the widest of grins
and
the loudest of laughs
lie the deepest of aches
deepest of pains
and that indeed
is art
we humans
are good at that
yet not so good
at the opposite
he made
everyone laugh
effortlessly
infectiously
a million miles
the face
from the word
called worry
or it's twin
the pain
yet he left
us gobsmacked.
no
not him
no way
not real
fake news
that's the instant
reaction
shaken are we
dear brother.
your art
left us stunned.
and movement
is not yet possible.
3 weeks have passed
we're still hurting.
bad.
R.I.P dear Artist. THE Void, you left it permanent.

No tribute
fitting enough
for the one who
without exception
brought nothing but smiles.

I do not know for whom this was written, but it is most certainly a heartfelt and poetic explanation for the reason they are no longer with us. And yes, it is a shame we can not express our demons with the same art we can hide them.
This speaks to me with more than the words you have placed within this write, for I have been one of those who stood at the grave with questions that shall never be answered.
I truly thank you for this.

A peer at work.
Who without exception
made everyone laugh
not just smile.
right from the moment
he stepped in
til he left.
No one ever saw
what demons
he was battling.
He left for his
place of birth
and a week later
we heard the news.
2 little children
a partner
and everyone who knew him.
in mourning.
deep.
Yes..it is unfortunate
humans can hide
the demons so well.
Hope
everyone finds peace.
soon.

Appreciate,
as said, is all we could.
I hear your loss. Such artists, live on in their art and that in someways is reassuring reminder yet somewhere in the corner there, it will keep reminding of the loss too.
Yes, hazards of the energy, so well put dear friend.
Appreciation of All Peers.
deeply.
