Unmasked

On the evening of the eighth of March 2020 I was boarding a train home. I had broken up two hours ago and was crestfallen. I thought of killing myself but later gave up on the thought when I remembered my mother had been waiting for me at home. I was beginning to imbibe my reality when the world was thrown into disorder by an invisible agent. I saw separation the cessation of desire and death. And I survived it all. This journal is an account of my journey through the all-pervasive and eerily humbling Covid-19 pandemic.
