Symbolic language makes use of images to portray feelings. Ponsot uses the heart to symbolize the speaker's emotions, from love to rage or anger. Although emotions are really reflective of chemical changes throughout the whole body, the heart centralizes them. And unlike the more popular symbolic heart, such as the ones used to suggest Valentine's Day, Ponsot uses the heart to symbolize all the speaker's emotions.
