A perfect lockdown

We met in November last year. I had low expectations from other online dates I’d met but straight away you were different. Dates outside in the freezing cold with mulled wine you bought in a flask and an extra coat for me in your rucksack.
Spending lockdown days playing games and telling each other everything about ourselves. I never thought that final lockdown could be so perfect, spending so much time with you. I will always treasure it.
I couldn’t imagine I’d meet someone who would accept everything about me and who would make me so blissfully happy during a global pandemic. 
In lockdown I met my best friend, the man who makes my stomach hurt from laughing. The man I can’t stop staring at because he’s so bloody hot. The man I love.
Thank you lockdown.
