your time-capsule; untitled

Done and dusted, we cast our days away
Our guardians of memories, they pick after us at the end of the day
The sun crosses the horizon, a brand new day begins
These collected memories we abandon,
Find themselves long forgotten.

We forget the silent monuments we glance past us
We take for granted what we see within our radius
Towards the gleaming conglomerates and swanky malls we race towards
Caught up in our mad dash as we spring forward.

Day by day they gather and document
Behind closed doors when the night is silent
Building archives, history and the progress we have made
Displaying the limited and precious whose goodbyes we have bade.

Amidst the instance of now we juxtapose with the familiar
A piece of comfort as captured in the Medieval
I care not what I’ve just said, all these are just material
But deep within my soul burns the desire of timeless forever
Where museums fulfill our imagination of  an era we wish to transport to…whenever.
