The way you look at me

"like a snake"

The snake is cold-blooded.

It's dangerous to humans.

This is quite scary.

Neither do you nor your deeds.

Exactly like a snake,

You are frigid toward me.

I feel like I'm in danger around you.

I want to be close to you.

But you are cold to me.

I am terrified of your deeds.

I'm afraid of the way you talk and holler at me.

The way you pushed me around

I feel threatened.

The way you look at me,

It's as if the snake is ready to bite me.

My heart isn't at ease around you.

I feel as if I am in peril.

I feel safe when I am away from you.
