Two Men-Two Goodbyes (Part 2)
If you saw beams gleaming
On Peavine Mountain last night
It was me, between two men I love
Having them both in sight
I haven't been on this mountain
For many years you see
But through all my desperation
I know I must face reality
True love is everywhere
For my friends spirit has been set free
We never judged each other
Although, sometimes mocked stupidity
Over at the edge I looked down
At who I thought I loved me
My ex and my children
But for him, there's only history
I looked up to the heavens
As I pray on my knees
"Who can I share my secrets with now
The man below, no future he sees"!
A waterfall of tears began
Living became a meditative state
For hours I cried and screamed
For the loss of loving too late
I awake in the fetal position
Eyes swollen like never before
I'm warm and cold at the same time
Body, stiff and sore
I cannot see the man below
My vision highly impaired
Darkness still looms
Lonely, hopeless, and scared
Then I remembered
What my friend always said,
"True love will never hurt you
Until that person is dead"
I didn't listen as usual
Now that he's gone, I understand
Looking down from Peavine Mountain to the other
I give my goodbye only written in the sand
"Please watch over them
For I too, have dreams."
I made a wrong turn in life
I now know what love mirage means.
I put my hand high up to him
Hoping to feel his touch
I gaze my eyes below to the other
Knowing, now, his love isn't much
My waterfall of tears
Turns to a tiny creek
"Goodbye to you both,
I have a new life to seek"
As I drive down the dirt road
A huge gust comes from the west
Pushing my truck to the man below
I'm sure it's a test!
I stop for a moment
Eyes piercing through swollen blur
Trying to hold back driving to him
He just wants what we were
As a cloud covered the sun
To ease the pain to my eyes
I knew my friend was testing me
Seeing if I'd fall for the others lies
Since the man at the base of the mountain
Cannot communicate as well
We will never know the truth
And tales we will tell
Protecting my vision
All the way to my front door
I blow a kiss into the wind
"I love you so much more"
Mr. Daniel Willey
Owner of Jesus Racing
My Best Friend
Dad Extrodinaire
Man at the base of mountain
My ex
The Man who can unlock my heart
