Medea essay
Dear Jason,
Jason, I am so mad at you I do not even know what to say. I guess first off I think that you are a
real jerk when you got your new wife. I defied my father so that I could be with you and I thought you
wanted to be with me to. I loved you and I thought you loved me back. I guess I was wrong and you do
not love me. I also killed my brother for you. I chopped him up into little bits and I threw him overboard.
I did all of that so you could get away with the Golden Fleece. When I killed king Pelias I thought I was
helping you become king but you just got banished. So in the long run I guess it just worked out better
for me that you got banished from your homeland instead of becoming the king. Also, I killed the
princess just so you could become king and how do you repay me by getting a new and younger wife.
When I killed king creon it was so that you could become the king of a new land because you got
banished. You became king but that just makes me so angry at you. When you told me that you were
getting a new wife that made me infuriated because I did so many things for you and you didn’t say
thank you once. You also told me that you were just like getting rid of me for a younger woman. That
brings me to the last thing. I know when you found out about your kids how angry you were. But, that
was the whole plan all along. I killed our kids so that you can go what I went through and it isn’t fun is it.
I killed our kids so that you could feel what I went through. It was the toughest decision of my life to kill
my own kids but I had to. It was the only I felt that I could get revenge on you and I hope it worked. I just
don’t understand if we were still together we would be living a happy life the two of us and our kids.
That is all over now and I feel awful and I am also happy at how mad you are so goodbye.
Your worst nightmare,
Medea
Dear Medea,
Medea, I know that you did so much for me but I cannot live with you anymore. When I got my
new wife I thought that it would be good for both of us. You defied your father I know that but you also
got me banned from my homeland. You tried to make me the king but you just made it worse for me.
When I stole the Golden Fleece you helped me so much by killing your brother and throwing him and
your father’s army overboard. Do not think that I did not love you because I did I just needed to move
on from you and start a new life. When you killed king creon that just made it worse because I would
have become the king eventually. And I did become king so I thank you for that but I could have done it
without you. I did not get rid of you just for any reason it was that you were going crazy and I just
couldn’t live with that anymore. Now I just hate you because when you told me you killed our children I
was so angry at you. When you first told me I did not know what to say, I couldn’t even think at all. Now
all I am thinking about is how their own mother could do something like that to her children. I am
infuriated and if you wanted to just get revenge on me well congratulations it worked. I think that you

are really, really stupid for doing that because it also just made it bad for you to. It really hurt me but I
also think it hurt you more. This is because you had to kill them with your own hand and you are their
mother. It does not really matter to me because I will probably get over it real quick and I could have
more kids. My wife is not afraid to have kids like you are so I will definitely have more. You on the other
hand are afraid to have more kids and you would probably kill them to. I think that you will never get
over because it will always be in the back of your head so that sucks for you. That is all I really have to
say to you so goodbye.
Your ex,
Jason
