"your fractured heart and its wounded beat"

orthostatic hypertension: a drop in blood pressure due to a change in posture (going from reclining, etc. to upright); may cause dizziness, lightheadedness, headache, blurred or dimmed vision (possibly to the point of momentary blindness), and syncope (temporary loss of consciousness); may also cause increased heart rate to compensate.
