If Your Life Were a Time Capsule

 

If your life were a time capsule of sorts

In what cornerstone would you brick in in

Against a mysterious opening day

When someone in the future would open you up

 

What would be found in the shell you left behind?

Shifting memories of moments of ecstasies

And mournful ghosts of sorrows best suppressed

And careful lists of long discarded dreams

 

If your life were a time capsule of sorts

What would you choose of you as a temporal deposit?
