Clytemnestra's Vengeance

In Mycenae's halls, where shadows creep,
Clytemnestra's heart, a vengeance deep.
With eyes so cold, and spirit bright,
She seeks revenge, through day and night.
Through whispers soft, and silent sighs,
In Clytemnestra's soul, the vengeance lies.
With every step, her anger grows,
In every choice, her fury shows.

Clytemnestra's Grief

In final breath, her truth revealed,
Clytemnestra's heart, forever healed.
With sorrow found, and spirit bright,
She faces darkness, with pure light.
Through battles long, and trials vast,
In Clytemnestra's strength, they hold fast.
With every tear, and whispered word,
In Clytemnestra's name, their hope is heard.
