The Curse of Medusa

Gazing into the mirror, her eyes like stones stare back

Mysteries of her soul, woven in midnight black track

Once a maiden shining bright, beauty woven in her hair

Now a legend in the shadows, whispers of despair

Words turned to stone, her gaze a deadly art

Medusa’s curse, a broken heart, a fallen star

Oh, beware her stare, it's a spell of pain

Caught in her gaze, trapped in endless rain

Unravel the myth, find the truth within

Medusa’s story, where do we begin?

Medusa, queen of the forbidden gaze

Turning fears to stone, lost in her maze

Silent scream behind her eyes of gray

Medusa, keep the monsters at bay

From innocence to curse, a tragedy unfurled

Mirror of a lost world, her story hurled

Snakes instead of hair, cursed to always see

A reflection of her pain, none true but she

In her silent pain, a warning in her face

A tragic beauty, trapped in time and space

Her story’s etched in stone, yet we understand

A misunderstood soul, seeking lifeline’s hand

Medusa, queen of the forbidden gaze

Turning fears to stone, lost in her maze

Silent scream behind her eyes of gray

Medusa, keep the monsters at bay

In the dark, she waits, a mythic creature’s sleep

A story of sorrow, buried deep

But maybe beneath the wrath and fear

Lies a heart longing for mercy near

So remember her tale, with compassion and grace

A victim of fate, no one can replace

Medusa’s curse, a mirror in our face

Seeking redemption, beyond disgrace
