    She hasn’t grasp the thought of him not loving her so he tells her to open her eyes and stop seeing what she wants to see, but to see what is actually there. “You must not grieve that the world is a glimpsed through veils.” (18) With blurred vision, and broken hearted she tries to understand him when he says, “That you are, you want to grasp the heart of things, hungry to know where meaning lies.” (21-22) He’s simply telling her that she can’t get what she always wants. Like a child asking a million questions or a lion hunting his prey, the answer is right in front of her. But still she denies that answer because it still isn’t the one she seeks.…

    In fact, Brian Doyle describes such in a very enchanting, if not somber, way in his essay “Joyas Voladores”. “When we are older we know this is the dream of a child, that all hearts are finally bruised and scarred, scored and torn, repaired by time and will…”(127) is a beautiful way Doyle describes the fragility and also the resourcefulness of one’s heart.

    I remember when my first romantic illusion in life broke up with me. Yes, it was the first time I had put my feelings at risk by falling in love with someone. The day that he passed away in my heart, I got lost in my feelings; a bunch of feelings that I had to keep in secret because my relationship with him would be never approved by my family. I felt disconsolation and desperation without having a chance to express the way I was feeling nor how I was encountering such lost. Disenfranchised grief is when a person’s heart is grieving, but such person cannot talk about or share the pain with others because it is considered unacceptable to others. In other words, it is when the person is sad and miserable but the rest think it should not be worth it. Examples of…

    The heart is a very abstruse thing. Scientifically, know the differences between a human’s heart and a dog’s heart. They know how many hearts a worm has and how a bacterium has none. Doctors know how to perform surgery on the heart without killing a person while a scientist uses a dead person heart to figure out how to prevent premature death. But other than that, the heart is a mystery. Why does the heart hurt when we lose someone we love? Why does it grow when we help someone? Is it actually a cold, dark vortex that has no emotions, or is it the heart Little Jimmy gave to Sally asking her to be his Valentine? I personally think that the best personification of a broken heart was done by George Lucas in Star Wars Episode III Revenge of the Sith. The way that Padmè dies of a broken heart in that movie really gives the viewers a real appreciation for her relationship with Anakin. In “Joyas Voladoras”, Brian Doyle uses many forms of rhetorical strategies, two being symbols and literal and figurative language, that delve into matters of heart and allow readers to experience the emotions he means to stir.…

    The poetic tone of the lyrics in “Getting Through” expresses the inescapable crushed and drawn-out feeling of heartbreak, while also hinting at its refusal to become extinct. “So I go on loving you,…” informs the reader that the heartbroken speaker is confronting the source of his or her pain (14). Unlike many narrators addressing the subject, this crushed soul is not begging to be taken back, but instead wants the oblivious cause to be aware of the uncontrollable and persistent love felt toward him and the torturous pain that has resulted. Unfortunately, as anyone who has ever had their heart broken knows, these words are futile as they go “…hurtling past,/ like a train off its track/ toward a boarded-up station,” (18-20). The speaker knows that this admission of love will not change anything, yet she still feels the need to express herself. There are no hints of hope or of a change of heart. In fact, it seems like the heart has been broken for quite a long time since there is a “deepening skin” of dust and the heart of the recipient is compared to “…a boarded-up station,/ closed for years,” (12, 20-21). The refusal, or possibly the inability, to move…

    Joyas Voladoras

    “A hummingbird’s heart is as small as a pencil eraser, a whale’s heart is as big as a room, and a human’s heart is somewhere in between the two.” Brain Doyle introduces various aspects of hearts to the reader in his essay “Joyas Voladoras.” Doyle himself writes, “A hummingbird’s heart beats ten times a second. They can dive at sixty miles an hour’’(273). Doyle describes the physical aspect of a hummingbird’s heart. The uniqueness of a hummingbird's heart limits its life span roughly two years. Doyle continues his comparative analysis of hearts by describing a whale’s heart. According to Doyle, “The biggest heart in the world is inside the blue whale....it’s as big as a room. ‘It is a room, with four chambers...a child could walk around in it’’(274). Doyle compares the number of heart chambers with those of other mammals, reptiles, fish, worms, and bacteria. The numbers range from four chambers in a whale to none in bacteria. He then connects the animals’ heart chambers to a human heart’s chambers and then Doyle starts explaining the emotional side of a human heart. In the end of Doyle’s essay he presents a series of emotionally charged scenes: “The words I have to tell you something, a cat with a broken spine dragging itself into the forest to die, the brush of your mother’s papery ancient hand in the thicket of your hair”(275). These scenarios suggest that no matter how strong you build your walls to protect your heart, they can easily come down with life experiences such as a breakup, loss of a loved one, or love at first sight. Doyle’s justification of a physical heart relies more on a mammals’ heart, and an emotional heart is what makes us human.…

    This type of sadness is doleful. It comes with weeping and sorrow. It can be paralleled to heartbreak, crushing the spirit and muffling the happiness in someone’s life. A person would feel the pressure of tears trying to break free when they remembered the event. It’s an alter in behavior because something inside has changed. People who feel this emotion tend to fake a smile in order to avoid questioning. It’s destruction of the normality in which people work or function. The mind drifts to these thoughts relentlessly, causing turmoil with every remembrance. It’s moments when nobody is around to distract; the world comes crashing in once more like it was stacked up to…
