LOCKDOWNS. JUST US AND A VULNERABLE SOUL. A NEOTERIC SENSATION OF IMPRISONMENT. SHACKLED WHILE UNBOUND. TRAPPED ONLY BY OUR SHARED HUMAN FRAILTY. VIRTUALLY WRAPPED UP AND TIED DOWN. MUMMIFIED. FROZEN. A FORCED PARALYSIS, MAKING US STAY PUT. LONGING TO FEEL HUMAN AGAIN IS THE ONLY THING LEFT TO DO. TRYING EFFORTLESSLY TO KEEP OURSELVES AFLOAT, TO GRASP THE TINIEST GLIMPSE OF FREEDOM. A LONELY MIGRATION BETWEEN BEFORE AND AFTER. BROKEN BODIES PRESERVED FOR FUTURE ENDEAVOURS. BONES WITHOUT MUSCLE, SKIN WITHOUT COLOUR, HEARTS WITHOUT LOVE. LOSING OURSELVES, OUR MINDS. HOWEVER, LOSING FAITH WE WILL NOT. WE LOOK UP. WE SEE THE OTHER SIDE, WHERE OUR FUTURE SELF EXISTS. THE VERY TRUTH. THE JOURNEY WHERE WE MIGHT MEET OURSELVES AGAIN.
