There was a woman who lived in a time capsule.
Frozen in time she did the same things day in and day out.
She wondered what she did to deserve this captive life.
Her mind guarded by the gates of time.
The little girl she worried about had a life outside of her own.
She hoped one day for them to share life in the time capsule.
But it was a hopeless dream.
The time capsule kept the woman safe from the changes of life.
But it kept her captive from freeing her mind and heart.
The little girl wished and hoped for it to be different one day.
She remembered what it had been like before the time capsule.
But the woman could no longer remember life before it.
Time had become an enemy in which she pretended did not exist.
*After reading this, it could be construed as an emotional battle between young and old, but it is actually a depiction of a relationship between a mother and daughter.
