The Piercing Heart

My heart was hurting this afternoon.
  It does this sometimes but I don’t really share this feeling  with all.
  There are days when many things come to mind that make my heart not just ache but feel like it is being stabbed.  I feel like my heart is being pierced with a needle..over and over again. When I asked my heart why does it hurt...it said...
