Macbeth Diary

I did no expect being a king to be so stressful and hard. I will probably have to kill even more people just so I can keep my position as king safe. I haven't yet told my wife about my plans to kill Banquo and Fleance because I doubt she would keep it a secret. The only person I can really trust is myself at this point. Now, I love my wife, but something  keeps telling me that she dosent really love me back. Her pressure of me killing Duncan gives me suspicion that she only wants power. Killing Duncan is a sin that can never be washed from my mind. It will haunt me forever and probably come back to kill me.
