The Lost Child — A Monologue
Description
That Love Podcast presents: The Lost Child — A Monologue
Format/Genre: A poignant audio drama monologue exploring grief, parental regret, and spiritual redemption.
Logline: A grieving father confronts his failure to truly see his lost son, and discovers that love—not loss—is what remains to save him.
Episode Summary: In this haunting and intimate monologue, a father stands alone with the unbearable truth: his beloved son has taken his own life. Consumed by the weight of his expectations and the ways he shaped his boy into something he could never be, he spirals through anguish and self-blame. Yet in the chaos of his darkest moment, his wife's face and his other children's simple joy pierce through the darkness. What emerges isn't forgiveness—it's acceptance. This is a raw, unflinching meditation on how we love imperfectly, how we grieve profoundly, and how the love already present in our lives can pull us back from the abyss.
