Piece of my heart

So here they are at last - or better 'here it is', since it's only one piece with two different 'moods' to represent the fact that, sometimes, my poor heart seems to burst out of joy and contentment and, sometimes, it seems to split into two out of grief for what has been lost.

The 'basket' somehow represents my chest, a space where air circulates, that contains and holds, protects but doesn't opress - like a wicker basket.

The 'warm feelings arise' side shows a heart where a strange flower is growing, green leaves bring forth new life and renewal.

The second side, 'healing wounds', gives a hint on the extent of the damage and how slowly and with care a broken heart may heal.
