'73 240z vs White Picket Fence

Pieces sprawled
Tinker toy constructs
Disassembled, my ideas vs hers
A cam gear set to top dead center
Synced with pistons and a points distributor
Mending engines as our bridges burn
Wrenches turn, pieces come together
Conversations turn, circle, and drain
Who we are crumbles the harder we try
The engine turns over, a fire rages within
When the smoke clears there is the open road
The joy, the speed, and the freedom
Left with dirty nails and bloody knuckles
I have only what I cannot fix
And she suffocates my satisfaction

... I was asked to join a writing group. Idk why, I'm not that good.
This week the challenge is to write a metaphor. I think i may have missed the point.
