heart tattoo designs
Heart tattoo designs are a standard that has been in use for hundreds of years. But, the true popularity of the heart tattoo design didn’t really become popular until World War II. That’s when millions of service men fearful that they would never return to see their loved ones decided to have this ageless design immortalized in ink on their skin. And what’s a better memorial of love and affection than the heart tattoo design. After all, hearts have been associated with true and undying love for thousands of years. Ever since the ancient Romans. The heart tattoo design is fairly typical of one of the many types. The banner proudly explains the object of the bearers affection, in this case his ‘True Love’. The blood dripping from the heart signifies passion and the sword penetrating the center of it represents the delightful, yet almost always painful sting of love. Alternately, you could pierce the heart with arrows or daggers, which are another common variation on the theme. The addition of the flowers lend a more emotional touch to the entire motif. But, no matter how the heart tattoo design is portrayed it’s a beautiful and sentimental addition to any collection of body art.

Many people go with heart tattoo designs for their first tattoo and I suppose that is because matters of the heart are universal in nature. But I would say this one has a rather dark meaning. A heart with the horns and tail of the devil, entangled in a few strands of barbed wire. This just might be a person with some problems.
