the misunderstood creature


maybe if i had aphrodite's beauty they would look at me and say

"i see who you really are and how you got this way"

it would obviously help if they didn't turn to stone

but with everyone being scared of me, im left on my own

no one knows my story yet they claim they do

my name is medusa and these snakes are my hairdo
