Clara.

Clara sits by the grave,

Staring at the mount of mud.

She remembers the way her father died,

The way her vision blurred with blood.

-

Clara wills herself to stay strong,

But the tears make their way down her cheeks.

The sound of the bullet piercing her father's skull,

Makes her bones weak.

-

Clara stands up with effort,

Dusting the mud off her blood-stained skirt.

"You left me father. Left me alone in this cruel world.

But I know its not your fault, so I will take revenge for the way you've been hurt."

-

Clara finds the beast who killed her father and raises her gun,

But she stops as a sense of humanity seeps up her mind.

She remembers her father's cheerful smile as he said,

"Remember darling, an eye for an eye only makes the world blind."
