Goodbye Macbeth: Life’s But a Walking Shadow
Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow.
Such is the way with
sorrow.
To endure the light of day
to find relief
in sleep,
to dream our yesterdays.
Day on day on day, and into my last words,
I live in this thin beige
shadow,
to not follow into your sun.
I must stay, an idiot full
of sound and fury.
Lines from Macbeth, Act 5 Scene 5.
- Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow,
- Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
- Life’s but a walking shadow
