Poem I wrote for my wife a long time ago

And I was up so high until I came crashing down Swirled through the lust of the underground Caught in the undertow I became a man I do not know Climbed up my mountain to where I stayed Fell back down to earth when you prayed Demands of the bottle trapped in my head Demands quickly become man’s best friend The mind finds devices it does not mind To give its self its own piece of mind Forgiveness is a word that does not say Things said in anger on unfaithful days Falling from grace where glory stays Falling from your arms slipping away Brought back down from my mountain again to where I stayed Back to the simple man's peaceful ways Upon the dirt my house I build In the fields my hands I worked In the night my mind slips away Through the fires light when my eyes are glazed In the morning when I awake It is in your eyes that I now stay
