Bombs.

So, there's this bomb I've been building for a while. But! Seeing as I'm not a very good bomb builder, sometimes I do the wrong thing, and just recently, I pressed the wrong button on accident and the bomb exploded everywhere...
I tried to pick up the pieces, rushing, trying to put it back together, not doing a very good job obviously, nor doing it the right way, I was just scared, I needed to put it back together as fast as I could.
While still working on that first bomb, there was another one, sitting off to the side, but it was a timed bomb, and I could always hear it ticking, I always knew it was there, but tried to ignore that sound. One day it started ticking faster and I knew it was going to explode. I didn't even try to stop it. Now I know I should have, but the point is that I didn't. And it exploded, right in my face. It hurt.
There was a huge mess. Now all I want to do is rebuild that first bomb, rebuild it and not get the pieces mixed up, rebuild it and make it stronger, rebuild it with time and care.
There's a whole field of land mines ahead. I didn't build them, no one did, or at least they didn't intend to. They are just there, and they always will be. When you step on them they explode, you can try to dodge them though, not necessarily every one of them, because that's impossible, you can never avoid all of them. But you can try, and that's all anyone can do, just try.
'Lucky we have a tank' to go through that mine field.
