scabs

by Barry Franklin

I want to run with you.
But my running shoes are in
     very bad repair.
My shoelaces untied, I might
trip and fall.
I might skin my heart.
And then I have this habit
     of picking at the scabs.

They never heal.

Excellent analogy Barry of love and the after effect if it goes wrong.
