This Is It. ~Macbeth

Song: In the End by Linkin Park
Quote: I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat.
                   -Winston Churchill

I have done all I can in this world. My last plea, though, is this, which was granted to me by my near-assassinator, Macduff.
I wish the world to let me be in peace, for now it seems be to be suffering in what I have caused  rather than from it. I am much better of having less responsibility.
Everything I have done, from murder to lies, has been for nothing. Let this be a lesson to anyone out there: Do nothing that you will regret. Do everything that will make you better in the end. Live for your country and die for it, but don't ever try to control it. It's not worth the consequences. I leave you now with my legacy and words, but I would not be surprised if you forget them all. I am prepared to join you, Banquo and dear chuck! Haha!
So long.

Just Let Me Sleep ~Lady Macbeth

Song: All in All by Lifehouse and The Climb by Miley Cyrus and If I Die Young by the Band Perry
Quote: A mistake is always forgivable, rarely excusable and always unacceptable.
                  -Robert Fripp 


At this point, all I can ask for is forgiveness, though I deserve nothing.
I have created a monster in Macbeth, a completely terrible and fully unrecognizable human-being that I once would have done everything for. I don't care anymore. 
I just want to rest and sleep. Sleep for a very long time. I want to know that everything in the world is going to be ok and that my life was not worthless because of what I have created in Macbeth. 
Yes, yes. I feel awful, but my soul is shattered. I can't take this anymore. I want peace. I hope that the forest comes up the hill and takes Macbeth. I hope that Macbuff or whoever comes for Macbeth. I hope that a man not born of woman can solve these seemingly unsolvable problems that I have created.
Please just forgive me, and let me sleep.

Waiting ~Macduff

Song: Waiting on the World to Change by John Mayer
Quote: A people that values its privileges above its principles soon loses both.
                    -Dwight D. Eisenhower


Life is not going so well... And then I think of Scotland, and I know that I must pull forth for her. 
My entire family has been killed, Macbeth is running a tyrannical rampage all over Scotland, and I cannot tell if the future of my home will be ruled by a strategical mastermind or a jokester playing tricks or another tyrannical ruler, all of which being Malcolm. I believe he was asking me where my allegiance stood, but he was talking about the rape of his people and all-around doom. I would not even kid about anything of the sort. I don't know if he is in a time of desperation or confusion or whatever else. 
But all I can do it hope that the plans we are putting together work. Macbeth killed Scotland, and it's time to revive her with the kiss of life in full force! God, help Scotland!
