The Pocket Watch

My name is Ameliah Doyle Engle and I will kill a man. I will not kill this man for cold justice or hot vengeance. I will kill this man to try to silence the echoes of my father begging for his life before this animal threw a match into his bleeding kerosene soaked face. I will kill this man to try to silence the echoes of my mother begging for her death as this animal raped her while her husband and home burned. I will kill this man because hate is all this animal has left me.
