My Terrible Fate

by Jakartacity

This is a poem I wrote about Majora's Mask, based on the Kubler Ross Stages of grief. This poem is based on the popular theory that Majora's Mask directly mirrors the five stages of grief: Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression, and Acceptance. Read and review if you'd like.

My Terrible Fate

A Shakespearean Sonnet:

As I descend into the depths of the Terminal

I'm in utter shock and disbelief.

I find myself entrenched in denial

An emotion I cannot help in my time of grief.

Like a king betrayed by his subjects

My anger continues to worsen.

like a tortured soul with many regrets

I can't help but bargain.

Like a mother who's lost her young ones

I am heartbroken and depressed.

Like a song that has frequently been sung

My end feels endless.

Tears roll down my cheek

Until I reach my acceptance peak.
