Chloe, i hang onto the past <br />Like a chandelier in a darkened room <br />But your hope is in the future <br />As light emerges from the gloom. <br />My sunset will be your dawn <br />Your happiness will be reborn. <br />It's snowy, but Chloe, ice will melt away. <br />Life, the price we have to pay <br />For the sun will light the bay <br />When silent fears sail away. <br />Chloe, we hang our hopes on a crescent moon <br />The aching in our hearts not just a pleasant tune <br />Scarred but starred like tender night <br />We feel the dark but wait for the light. <br />Our words still survive on a nomadic wind <br />Our thoughts free and open, with reality twinned. <br />Be proud, that life's shroud you have cast away <br />To feel out loud, while others torn, do fray- <br />Keeping it all inside on this roller- coaster ride <br />-They had so neatly planned, when love went hand in hand <br />As passion's fire was fanned. <br />Then Cupid turned out their light. <br />We still have the blue crazed night. <br />Chloe, continue to fly your kite <br />While the smug are convinced they are right. <br />Yes, the heart must rule the head <br />No skeleton ever bled <br />No feeling, no life, just dead. <br />Chloe we hang our hopes on a crescent moon.<br /><br />Kevin East<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/chloe-2/
