To wear one's heart on one's sleeve@Everything2.com

To wear one's heart on one's sleeve is an expression meaning that the person in question is not only emotional and vulnerable, but somewhat recklessly so. The person is exposing his or her soul to the world - they're simply letting everyone in to the china shop, and giving them all sledgehammers on the way in.

You hit the nail on the head and the nail was directly above my heart	You can only watch as his heart is coaxed from his chest to his sleeve	My heart is in the mail	The room is full of smoke and dialogue I know by heart
Love, as seen from the inside of my head	Bright Eyes	I come to you, defenses down	We never pay for it
heart	laughter lines	Things every child should be taught	I have never been sure that you knew quite how much I loved you
Melodramatic	Sledgehammer	Emily's Legs and Her Shoes	talking shit about a pretty sunset
Having fun with the Pizza Delivery Boy	Throw away your fucking scale!	God has sent you this experience in order to deepen you	Ingulf
Zero	vulnerable	God of War	sleeve
