Forgiven Fantasies

Forgiven fantasies
of older years,
Jumbled question
mock shallow tears.

Midnight dances
with the stars,
As the fog rolls in
from  near and far.

Promised promises
of life and death,
Empty wishes 
of conquered quests.

Problems take 
time to mend,
like lost love's
and old school friends.

Forgiven fantasies
of old and new
give us hope
of something true.
