A Poem by HappyAccident
"

My fascination with the Tudor is kind of weird.I could shoot facts at you all the way to Elizabeth the first death.So obviously I had to choose the most interesting women Anne Boleyn .

"
The walk of memories
     My life for what it was
     I was a daughter,a sister,a mother a wife a queen
                  A daughter with no freewill
                  A sister put last until I became first
                  A mother,Oh my Elizabeth I shall miss you most
                  A wife to a man who wanted a son
                  A Queen to the people who called me a w***e
     Until Now I am,
                  A daughter who couldn't be saved
                  A sister deserted one executed the other exiled
                  A mother,Oh my Elizabeth I shall miss you most
                  A wife to a king,courting another queen
                  And a queen who knows that she will die
The last plank is placed on my scaffold
The swordsman awaits me
My feet are brave, my heart a coward
I welcome the mixture of emotion,the last bit of air I shall breathe
The blood in my veins freezes,the ice in my finger tips
Kneeling before the block
Commending my soul
Swoosh
                  I am not a queen
                  no longer a daughter
                  half a sister
                  forever a mother,Oh Elizabeth I shall miss you the most

This is like comparing yourself to when you did have success to when all that slipped away and what was left was nothing but a bad hatred position to be in. I inspire this poem and the structure really does help the lines flow in my head. It shows how creative you are. Very touching and heart-braking
