“Here is the deepest secret nobody knows.
(Here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud and the sky of the sky of a tree called life; which grows higher than soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that’s keeping the stars apart.
I carry your heart (I carry it in my heart)”

23/3/2020, I wake up to silence.
No cars drive by my window, no children walk to school, and I lay still for a while finding some comfort in knowing that I have nowhere to be.

Hours quickly turned to weeks and then months.
I thought regularly about the importance of companionship, support, lonlieness, love and loss throughout this period.
As lockdown eases I focus on couples who have been eachothers support throughout.
