My Beautiful Life; the Story

The choices had I made the plans I had laid
only I could truly understand 
the life I could see the person I would be 
a life‘s a fit for kings would be grand
The wounds I felt the bruises I was dealt 
I came out alive but I’m broken
It was at the cost my fantasy was lost
And my fairytale story only spoken
Instead I carry this pain and nevr took a mans name
 my unfulfilled Hopes are just words
 No baby to love no husband to speak of
 the heart I carry is so destroyed it hurts 
I am begging God to forgive if this life I can’t live
 since these tears bleed beyond my skill
 I need to go on all my strength has now gone 
if you don’t love me by now you never will 
please tell them I was great even if you really feel hate 
since I tried my best to be strong 
I was told I have failed I guess I couldn’t prevail
Please don’t forget about me now that I’m gone.

So sad. I feel the angst in this lyrical limerick! Very creative and well done!
