Marriage

Yes, It is you and I.
Consuming the same space,
breathing the same air,
We are syncronized.

Yes, this is what spending time together is.
You are there. I am here.
Yet the exhange of words and touches are limited.
If not limited, none.

I often times demand.
But you insensitively do not succumb to my wants.
If not wants, my needs.
This is who you are.

I have grown tired of demanding.
Though I am tired, I still long for you to see.
This is not what I dreamt of.
I am not satisfied.

Medusa

In Greek mythology Medusa (/məˈdjzəməˈ--sə/US /məˈd-/; Μέδουσα "guardian, protectress") was a monster, a Gorgon, generally described as a winged human female with a hideous face and living venomous snakes in place of hair. Gazers on her face would turn to stone. Most sources describe her as the daughter of Phorcys and Ceto, though the author Hyginus (Fabulae Preface) makes Medusa the daughter of Gorgon and Ceto. According to Hesiod andAeschylus, she lived and died on an island named Sarpedon, somewhere nearCisthene. The 2nd-century BCE novelist Dionysios Skytobrachion puts her somewhere in Libya, where Herodotus had said the Berbers originated her myth, as part of their religion.
Medusa was beheaded by the hero Perseus, who thereafter used her head, which retained its ability to turn onlookers to stone, as a weapon until he gave it to the goddess Athena to place on her shield. In classical antiquity the image of the head of Medusa appeared in the evil-averting device known as the Gorgoneion.
