Spellbinding. I love it! I am glad I ventured into poems today and found this work of art. I don't think "talented" is a big enough adjective to use about you Mr. West. I know I have been profuse with my compliments but, I mean them all. I will say again...I loved it!
Always,
Justafan

I am not a real fan of country music, so if you like this, I think that is all that matters. The story is easy to follow and the meaning is not hidden in gobbledygook. Good luck to you.

Excellent poem. I enjoyed this writing.

See was over in the corner when I came home tonight.
once again Jack Daniels helped me see the light.

The only peace I find here in the valley is when she gives herself to me.
There may be no such thing as angles but I got one here with me.

This work has reached the exceptional level

"They say there's no such thing as angels, well, my woman's wearing wings.
She's the rock that I still lean on. The gold inside our wedding rings.
The only peace I find here in the valley is when she gives herself to me.
There may be no such thing as angels but I got one here with me."

Absolutely! I love this chorus... makes me want to sing (trust me, you don't want me to) :(
I have a few poems that i've often thought would make good country songs (one of them actually was)... you're a storyteller, and I find that so intriguing!

For me, touching others with our words is the best feeling in the world, and I can tell that it is for you as well.

Thanks for sharing so much of yourself.
Cat

    Writing Country music song lyrics is my passion. I do enjoy it and sharing them with others. I never thought I would find the kind of success and support I have had on this site. All you all make me want to keep right on writing and posting them.

Alcoholism is the scourge of many loving, caring families and relationships, there's no doubt about it, Brett. No addiction is healthy, but alcohol affects not just the one getting drunk, but often times the families involved as well.

These lyrics are extremely well written. Me being a country music fan from way back, I've always appreciated the moral values and messages many country songs impart. These catchy lyrics are certainly no exception.

Great work, and congratulations on all of your All-Time Bests...~Dean

This is an interesting poem that the author has created with this piece of work. This is an extremely beautiful post and it makes me feel warm inside. There are indeed angels here on earth who make life worthwhile. However, there are also devils. :-)

This poem shows the woman's love and perseverance. It also shows the man's love.
But I see no lyrics about him stopping drinking as you say he does in your notes.
It is a well beginning and middle but I think you need another verse to complete the story.

Keep writing

These are good lyrics for Country and Western.
I tried to sing them to a simple C&W beat and that was pretty good. Since I'm not musically inclined, the fact that it worked for me says it's going to work with a proper score.
The story is very clear and the sentiments of twisted drunken soul and a loyal, admiring attitude to the long suffering wife, fits the genre perfectly. There's a story to be shared and emotion to underpin the plot. Loved the chorus. Really catchy and perfect for this.
They say there's no such thing as angels, well, my woman's wearing wings.
She's the rock that I still lean on. The gold inside our wedding rings.
The only peace I find here in the valley is when she gives herself to me.
There may be no such thing as angels but I got one here with me. ..
Yeah, very nice.

It would appear I have become a fan of your lyrics reading back on your list I think in fact I KNOW I have reviewed three previous posts.
This one is the best so far,
I hope music will be added to your muse

You have wrote about a good strong marital bond where two imperfect people love each other. I loved reading this well written poem.
