Act Five, Scene One

The depression that I experienced tonight was vast. After seeing the gravedigger sing whilst dig for a body, I pondered about life and its true values. I never realized how much we take life for granted, not appreciating its full prize. You can be living one second, the next, you're gone. Vanished. Away from this earth. After thinking of this for a little at the graveyard with Horatio, we come across Claudius, my mother, and Laertes at a funeral for someone. After Horatio and I investigate, we come to the conclusion its for the love of my life- Ophelia. Seeing this broke my heart. I snapped. I attacked Laertes while he was cherishing his final moments with her in the grave. After a little skirmish, it was broken up. Oh, how I wanted him dead that very moment. Claudius, my so-called "father," then orders for my taking away and that was the end of that. The fury inside me raged. I then lash out on him, questioning him as to why he treats me like I'm nothing. Just a speck of dirt. Soon, this will all end, I sense.
