Medusa to Knight (Poetry Plot Twist Part 2)

You came here with your sword,
Ready to cut my head off...

But, all I wanted was for you to truly see me.
See, I was beautiful once.
Then I got raped by the god of the sea,
And thrown aside like a bag of garbage.

I had been incapable of love for a long time,
Hundreds have come and lost.

But, you, oh handsome man!
You were the first to open my eyes.

Oh how I wish you would just look at me,
So I run after you,
Like I did with the others.

But, little did I know,
You would be my greatest weakness.
