Misunderstood

You see the girl standing there

With her hood pulled taught over her hair?

Though her face is hid in the shade,

A more beautiful creature has never been made.

No one cares about her over there. 

No one sits or talks with her. 

She freezes when she’s in a group. 

But, they freeze when her hair falls from its loops. 

Medusa is not alone because of fear

She is alone because of choice. 

She is not weird, only misunderstood and without a voice.
