Paint the Wound With Care

J-ust paint the wound with care
U-ntil the heartaches end; 
N-ever rub salt into the cut, it's not too late to mend.

P-aint the wound with care, 
A-s you reform the damage; 
N-ever add insult to injury, 
U-nderstand the pain's message.
G-ash February seventeenth is just due for repair; 
A-llow your hands of concern to paint the wound with care.
