Triggers are thrown in every direction

She ponders how this anxiety will manifest 

As she watches him ignore her every request 

She feels unseen and unheard by his deflection 

Triggers are thrown in every direction 

 

He needs more time to process this feeling 

The message she sent leaves him reeling 

He’s overwhelmed by her incessant reflection 

Triggers are thrown in every direction 

 

She opens her reels and there she sees 

He gives out adoration to others with ease  

This hurts her core wound of rejection 

Triggers are thrown in every direction 

 

He won’t give her his time or intent 

His independence is sacred to the highest extent 

He’s a stubborn bachelor who refuses inflection 

Triggers are thrown in every direction 

 

She’s open and honest and has strong emotion 

Her desires and fantasies perceived such a notion 

That relations with him could be perfection 

Triggers are thrown in every direction 

 

His vulnerability shrinks into tiny vague pieces 

As his unruly fear of closeness with her increases 

He puts up a wall of resistance for protection 

Triggers are thrown in every direction 

 

She’s aware of his changes and patterns 

So she earnestly studies his actions and learns 

She sees him clearly through his disconnection 

Triggers are thrown in every direction 

 

He’s mastered the art of compartmentalization 

This he learned as a child of emotional desertion 

Leaving a core wound of shame, lacking affection 

Triggers are thrown in every direction 

 

She’s hot for him and seeks his attention 

But her moves are met by his calm apprehension 

When he touches her curves, there is no objection 

Triggers are thrown in every direction 

 

He’s terrified to advance the romance 

He’s better suited to practice avoidance 

She’s too real and he feels the connection 

Triggers are thrown in every direction
