All The Pretty Girls

All The Pretty Girls

A Poem by Katie Kistler
"

Abby

"
She seems to wear her heart on her sleeve
And it's just oh so endearing
If a little bit naive
She seems so pure and sincere
That's more than I can say about
The people I've held dear

She stands so tall
I can see it from a distance
And it's making me feel small
She says it all
Whatever comes to mind
And now I'm backed against a wall

All the pretty girls
Always let me down
They love the way I love them
And they love to watch me drown
All the pretty girls
Take me by the heart
They love to feel it beating
Love to watch it fall apart

Are you gonna let me down?
Are you gonna let me down?
Are you gonna let me down?
Are you gonna let me down?

She says things that make me feel weak
And it's just oh so typical
Is there something up her sleeve?
She seems so painfully honest
And I'm scared to hear her carry through
If she ever says "I promise"

She's just so strong
I can hear it in her voice
Like a million dollar pop song
She's going on
About the way she says she feels
And I'm inclined to feel she's wrong

Cause all the pretty girls
Always let me down
They love the way I love them
And they love to watch me drown
All the pretty girls
Take me by the heart
They love to feel it beating
Love to watch it fall apart

Are you gonna let me down?
Are you gonna let me down?
Are you gonna let me down?
Are you gonna let me down?

Are you gonna let me down?
Are you gonna let me down?
Are you gonna let me down?
Are you gonna let me down?
