a quiet person; a person who doesn't share very much (doesn't mean they are bad); untalkative; tight-lipped;

If you watch the ABC during the day in a Sunday — Stateline, Landline, and Gardening Australia — you get a real picture of how much quiet heavy lifting in this country is being done by taciturn melanoma hosts named Barry.

It's 5 am; a new record
I'm bathed in rage
Can't focus
Wish I could talk
Your taciturn dismissal would work wonders on me today
A fictional lap is better than nothing
I guess
I don't think I'll sleep, I'll spare your nightmares
But the clock is ticking faster
And the curse is stacking

Sharing w/feedback to illustrate that there’s no ‘normal’ grief.
My take is different. I ignored calls after finding my spouse’s corpse. I’m stoic & taciturn, calls felt too demanding.
I appreciated texts, but what made me most grateful was any invitations to share a meal.
