It's weird to think the inside of our bodies are dark.

But of course, our skin is transparent. We can see the veins traversing through our bodies.

But the heart is buried in a very thick layer of parts. To protect it, of course, because if anything were to happen to it, we would die.

The blood sees the light, sometimes, if it travels through a particularly thin section of skin, or if it passes by a wound.

Does the blood tell the heart stories of the light?

Does the heart want to see it for itself?

Does the heart beat at the walls of its cage, built for its own safety, to see what it has only heard stories of?
