They followed me across the room.
They glinted in the light,
And shone like the moon.
They moved quickly,
Flicking here, and there;
Seeming to look through me,
In a penetrating stare.

My eyes kept low,
I was afraid to look.
However, I'm sure they still read me;
Like an open book.
They looked at me intently,
As if for them I would be a thriller.
There they followed me,
The cold-blooded eyes; of a killer.

The author's comments:
I guess to some, this poem may seem a little weird. To me, it wasn't at the time I was writing it. I was in the process of watching a rerun of Criminal minds. Most of my ideas for this came from shows like CSI, NCIS, etc. Stuff like that. All I have to say is, if you don't like it, that's fine. Maybe you like something else. But if you do like it, let me know I'll make another one. XD ^@_@^

Yeah, I mean, I suppose you're right. But it's hard not to, because the things I write now I think are so much better than this. And it's hard not to look at it and see all the flaws. :P But that's good, though, right? If i see them, I can fix them. :) Hmmm... well, I'm not very good at writing songs, and Skandarlicious was mainly a parody for Em. I don't usually do songs. I'm not ood with them, and the thing for Em was just sort of a little thing on the side. I prefer to keep my focus on noveling and recently, poetry. But I'll keep the idea in my head. Who knows? Someday I might become a famous singer/songwriter. :P jk jk lol

Thanks. Although I have to say, it was one of my first pieces, and I've never been good at writing poems or anything, so in my opinion, I think it's the worst of my work on here. :P Probably one of the only poems I've ever written as well. XD

I think it's unique. It does sound paranoid, but that's kind of what makes it cool. :)

Yeah, I mean, I didn't spend a whole lot of time on it or anything, so it's probably not the best it could be. It does kinda come across paranoid, though. :) Thanks for reading it.
