I Heart You

Oh young love.  Where every moment feels like the first, and the last.  Every feeling is magnified a thousandfold, and your heart feels like it could beat out of your chest.  Where you take your heart, and offer it up to another, hoping that they do the same.  Alas, Cupid’s arrow doesn’t always hit both of his targets square in the heart, and while one person may fall head over heels in love, the other might only get a flesh wound.  So what is one to do?  Grab hold of that arrow, rip out their own heart and offer it freely, with the hope that the other person will do the same?  Or leave it buried deep within themselves, forever lodged in their chest, aching whenever they think of the one they lost.
