A heartbroken man devises a macabre ruse to win a woman's heart. Winner 55 Words Contest.
Under the cover of darkness, the lunatic dug up the woman’s grave, pried open the lid of the coffin, and deftly carved out the cadaver’s heart. He picked up the decomposed organ in his cupped hands and dug his teeth into the rotting flesh.

At least in death, he hoped to have the woman’s heart.
