Biologically, medically, the heart is not capable of thought or feeling. Both experiences are cerebral. They are felt, experienced, lived or dying, in the brain. Interestingly, the heart is not even as beautiful as, to me, the above picture is captivating, whether or not amorous.
The heart (not the flower) has four chambers which sequentially pump blood from one to another to another in a continuous cycle, which keeps us alive much before the moment of birth (as could be discovered only after the discovery of ultrasound, and echocardiogram systems). The myth was that the newborn heart's first beat was instantly after birth, indicative that the child was not a stillborn casualty.
Anyway, for the sake of people who fall in love with this picture as I have, I should not dissect (already too late) further, and just keep on looking at it, staring at it; and, who knows, it may therapeutically improve my own heartbeats.

Very very nice heart, cross my heart.
Actually
it feels like some alien forces have conspired to counter the
divisiveness the violence and conflict on the human planet and made a
wreath of hearts.
Beating in harmony for no particular cause except that hearts beating in unison make for a good feeling.
