Carve Your Heart

by Maria Terezia Ferencz

The patina of insecerity lies thick upon the wood
of the heart you claim
you've carved for me
Perhaps it's best you should
Trying sanding it
grind it down
to a deeper shine
before you try to give
to me something
that is not mine

Secondhand gifts from uncertain souls... no matter how many layers are ground to dust, the pain of knowing that the inspiration was from another... teardrops warp the wood.
