Pandora Box?

The image is taken from Pixabay. 

Some secrets were safer buried for eternity

Locked and hidden in a box from the past 

While leaving the numerous questions unanswered

Forgotten until the others gave up and moved on

Locked and hidden in a box from the past 

Away from the prying eyes of all

Forgotten until the others gave up and moved on

I opened the box for one last time 

Away from the prying eyes of all

It sat patiently waiting to be noticed

I opened the box for one last time 

Doomed and drowned by the Pandora of memories

It sat patiently waiting to be noticed

While leaving the numerous questions unanswered

Doomed and drowned by the Pandora of memories

Some secrets were safer buried for eternity

Note:
The Pandora Box story was one of my favorites since childhood.
I tried to replicate the story with a different form of sadness.
The poem is written in Pantoum style.
