What vexes all men?

The heart was a useless organ.

All it was able to do was hurt. It thumped for a wild creature, thinking it possessed her, his heart hers.

To be shattered.

Beauty, an ugly deception. Waves in the sea only taunted the shores, humiliating them in the end.

The man observed her with him, watching the horrible, teal waters, his hand stroking her back.

The onlooker felt the battering pain of tide upon him. No use for a heart anymore. None whatsoever.

So, his heart hardening watching Jack and Elizabeth, Will Turner resolved to tear it out.
