Smart And Way Too Pretty Poem by lost soul

Watch out! she's gonna love you!
- take your life!
- and take your soul! ,

take your dreams!
and break your heart!

leave you nothing left at all!

..........For she was smart, way too pretty
the kind of girl I'd never get.
I should've known that she would leave me
should've known I wouldnt forget!

Met her in college when I was 20,
never knew a girl like her.!
said she loved me!
she would save me!
she would be my own, forever!

Got me thinking, got me feeling
looking hard at what I am,
If only I knew how to love a woman
maybe she'd want me as a man.

but I was young
and I knew nothing,
never knew that things don't last.
She let me slip and slide away
until I vanished in her past.

Now time will come and time will go,
you'd better live
before your old.
you'd better love before you die
but don't hang on or wonder why!

Forget your dreams! forget your goals!
forget your worries, forget it all!
a girl like her will come along

and when she leaves

she's got your soul
