In 2015,
I prayed I'd still be alive
Until 2020
To open
My time capsule.
I did the assignment
And wrote down
What hope I had left.
I poured everything I had
Onto that paper,
Thinking
Maybe that'll be
My next goal to live to:
Graduation.
Middle school passed.
Graduation passed.
First day of college passed.
It arrived
The week before finals
When I was hesitant
To trust anymore,
Struggling to
Complete assignments,
And lost someone
I cared about.
"I hope
You are still alive
To read this."
"It'll be hard,
I know.
But stay strong
And keep going."
