Trigger

The people that degrade me

the people that I am around,

that erode my boundaries.

They do not try to, but they trigger-

me and past thoughts.
they trigger past alternatives.

they trigger past temptations and

awaken old patterns that lead to death.

the people around me that

erode my boundaries

without trying

just by talking

to have them around, erodes-

Boundaries, self, new goals

They all erode-

to the old self,

to a lesser version

of me that once was

and tries to revive.
