Chimerical

A smile, a tear
A hidden fear
Unearthed
From the deepest wells
Of buried memory

A thought, a sigh
A last goodbye
Wrenched from a broken heart

A hope, a dream
Chimerical,
Unseen
That flickers
Like a dying lamp

A breeze,
A gale
A wind of change
A portal
To that other place

And end
A death
Of things forgotten
And old

The skies have assented
Its time
To start
Afresh
