To me it seems like someone in grieving. Their loved one is "living in their mind" through memories, but obviously it can't match actually being there.
Not too sure about the next verse, maybe just a memory about an argument they had while the loved one was still living.
The next verse seems to be about their coping mechanism. They spent the year locked up, reading books to distract them from the painful memories which remind them that the loved one is dead.
The bit about echoes and super-symmetry suggests a slightly more spiritual element, that they can still in a way feel connected even though seperated by death.
