bosoms

Hearts rest here

Bosoms is the plural of bosom—the human chest, especially a woman's breasts.

The word carries a warm, old-fashioned tone: She clutched the letter to her bosom.

Figuratively, the bosom is a place of intimacy and safety: the bosom of her family.

A bosom friend is an especially close one.
