About This Quote

When someone describes a person as having a battered heart, it means that they have been hurt many times and don’t know how to let go of those hurts. Their heart is so bruised and beaten that it is not able to love. The words “bruised and battered heart” have a sense of sadness to them, as if the person is broken and cannot heal from the pain.
