I was born with a deformity where my heart is made of valves and
chambers and isn't actually made of fire like everyone else's. As
you can imagine, this has lead to some pretty bad teasing. You
can't tell from the outside but once word gets out it's pretty ceaseless.
And to make matters worse I can feel all my blood sloshing around,
beating and beating and beating but not exuding the same passionate
warmth as the rest of you.

it could be worse. I know a boy who was born with a heart of
liquid nitrogen and no one will go near him.
