Medusa

Oh my, Medusa how beautiful you are

in antient times a maiden fair and pure

With golden locks that flowed 

and eyes that shown like stars at nights command

But one day 

Poseidon God of the sea came to your temple and couldn't not resist your beauty and charms and did decree to take you for his own

with a forceful kiss

A victim of the wrath of gods unknown

a tragic tale of beauty turned to stone

The day I met you Medusa was 15 years ago, and the last time I acquainted with you was of 2 years ago

A burden heavy on my heart and mind

A weight that lingers long and everywhere

It seeps into the soul and leaves behind scares that can not be erased

It shattered my trust and left me in pieces

How can someone who has the same blood as you do something so vile.

The memories haunt and cause such deep distress

oh Medusa how beautiful you are

but your presence is so piercing to the heart

Your skin became a shield of stone gray

your beauty turned to terror and gloom

all who gaze upon you turn to stone

But you plight, you found your voice

a strength and power you had not known

A weapon to defend your rejoice and legacy of courage to be shown

For in your curse you found a way to stand up tall and face your foes with grace

to leave behind 

the story of your face
