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.
