Array ( [sid] => 83103 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Another Nail [time] => 2005-02-05 13:33:09 [hometext] => [bodytext] => When we row in goes another nail,
Into our love the sharpness impales,
Strangling it to within an inch of death,
Leaving it alone with nothing else left.

Words like little iron shards of glass,
Their painful attack never to pass,
When we pull the nails out the scars are still there,
Plain to see the aftermath of the hurt we did share.

I hope over time these scars will heal,
That we can get back onto our even keel,
The wounds that have been made,
They were deep & they have stayed

Rowing did become a part of our relationship,
As if it was fed to us through a drip,
But not anymore as we are both really trying,
I never again wish to see you crying.

I pushed you to your limits although unintentional,
It made you see hurt three dimensional,
Your heart is sensitive of that I now know,
I hope in some time you’ll have no scars to show.
