I am Medusa

I am Medusa,
The one with the stone gaze.
You look into my eyes
And turn into stones;
Stone statues that once breathed the fire of life.
You cease to breathe;
Yet you do not die.
You are just statues
Reminding me of a cursed life,
A life that is doomed to eternal solitude.
The serpents adorning my head make me twitch;
Fear oozing down my spine;
Crawling creatures hissing in my ears,
Never letting me sleep.
You say you fear me;
I say I fear myself.
I wish I could turn myself into a stone.
