Thank god Macbeth was put to death
He was such a threat 
Macbeth was a terrible king who only wanted to get to the top
But he never stopped and thought 
He Killed so many men 
It made Duncan want to kill him
Leaving many innocent people dead
Lady Macbeth didn't stress 
Macbeth wanted a better life 
But he tried to hard and had to die 
His head was cut off 
And left on a steak for everyone to watch his filthy head rot

Macbeth's Fall by Shaira Betita



An army of light,
The Beast will fight,
Before the night,
Darkness cloaks the light,
Light will be night,
as none believe in the light,
Hear Macbeth wail,
See Macbeth assail,
Towards the gory night,
when all force to fight,
to end his reign of might,
Ha! I am king
And none can be King!,
His horns reach the clouds,
As more cries out loud,
Light shook him down,
Looking like a clown,
Hear the glorious day,
Arise, Arise, Arise,
for no more moon coming this way,
The reign of Light,
Has shook the night,
Macbeth was no more,
see the day of galore

People may say by Cassie N

People may say
That Macbeth is here to stay
But I know what he did
As he tries to get away with it, I forbid
King Duncan is dead
As he was killed in a bed
People think it was the guards, but I know
It was Macbeth, as he tries to go with the flow
But, this is not a game, and he will be caught
Because killing is not what we were taught. 
Macbeth likes to kill 
And all of this shall soon go downhill.
-Banquo

I can not hide what I have done by Julia S

I can not hide what I have done
I killed Duncan
I did not kill him with a gun
Nor a knife 
I take the blame
Macbeth wouldn't have killed him
If it was not for me
Should I pay the price?
Its been a long run
But then end has come
I can not stand the guilt any longer
I must pay my price. 
-Lady Macbeth

While you Weren't Here by Paige Goldstein


While you weren't here
I cried every night
A million tears fell
Still my heart wasn't right

While you weren't here
I did what I could
Hoping against hope
My decisions were good

While you weren't here
I gained some in age
Things just went on
And life turned a page

While you weren't here
I just tried to go on
Knowing what didn't kill me
Would only make me strong

While you weren't here
A whole lot got changed
My life became different
My world rearranged

While you weren't here
I had to learn to be alone
To stand on my two feet
To make my own home


So that's where I am now
At this stage of my life
Still scared and alone
Still coping with strife

But years have gone by
And I'm not going to lie 
I thank you leaving 
Because being without you now 
Turned out to be reliving

Mirror, mirror by Caroline Lovett (at age 16 or so)


I asked you today if I was pretty
“yes” you whispered
Yet the reflection contradicted so.
The face I saw in your frame
Was not the one I know.
She looked so very different
And was wearing a lovely smile
I did not recognize her face
It has been such a long while.
The girl in the mirror lives in a different world,
she tells me that’s where she’s happy
she wants to stay.
As I get closer to the mirror
She suddenly fades away.
When I try to walk in her smile
I realize she’s just an image
That the perfect girl inside the mirror
Is nothing but a bit of me, a taste of me,
Who I am and who I’ll be.
She passes me a smile
As though to say hang in there
Everything will be alright
As long as I treasure life and strive.

I nod; I am worth the fight.
