I like this - it has elements of both despair and hope within it, which are not two things you expect to find together! Nicely written, nice air of simplicity which belies the despair, as the hope, as both are simple yet incredibly strong emotions. Like your description of 'blood stained and showered in tears', and your link between wearing the heart on the sleeve, and then a heart so patched.. nicely done.
A good write, in all!
