That Way

by Melissa   Dec 18, 2010


Please, don't look at me
that way-
keep those hands at bay

It's discomforting
having them roam about,
like curious little critters
across the continent of me,
exploring every alley
as though I were
quite suddenly becoming
something satiable,
I swear I'll be less accommodating
if you promise not to look at me
that way

    Hello there :);well

    I was curious about the title; you know "that way" may BE anything, or about anything..

    So yes it caught my attention..

    Please, don't look at me
    that way,
    keep those hands at bay

    ^^I must be honest right?
    I love the opening; cause it was not CLEAR..wat way are you on about which made me wanna read more..
    but the hands has no relation with that line..
    you should perhaps end at least the line before it? in order to complete the idea you had in mind ( which yes i got but still..) and bay sounded forced you know..only to get along with way
    >>now sure it sounded like keep them THAT far..but i think you know what I mean "if you reread"
    It's discomforting
    having them roam about,
    like curious little critters
    ^^^the hands part made so mucccchh sense when I reached this ppart but I said ; you need to end the line before it with at least a (period > . <)

    Amazing description ; very precise..was rather well worded as well.

    across the continent of me,
    exploring every alley
    ^^^
    FANTASTIC; yes what a good imagination; smart word choice and I really loved the continent of me.. very very profound; and can be taken farther (with meaning )

    as though I were
    quite suddenly becoming
    something satiable,

    ^^^this was very satisfying , really completes
    the part before it in a very talented way.The thoughts are interconnected .Well done

    I swear I'll be less accommodating
    if you promise not to look at me
    that way

    ^^oh wow this was just like a chillll...I love love it; was such a simply yet deep feeling to think about how U are thinking and feeling with his looks being aimed at you.. THAT WAY :)

    excellent for me : 5/5 (ya just that opening thing lol)
