Ocean Within

Within my body there is an ocean 
I can feel the waves crashing against
the chambers of my heart
and the currents rushing down my spine
My body from the inside is painted aquamarine
while the ocean's music perform 
inside of my lungs

I've really been enjoying your poem and the emotions and imagery were so vivid that i could easily picture them as beautiful illustration. I'm a commission-based manga/webtoon artist, and I'd love to help bring your story to life if you're ever interested. Feel free to reach out at gm@il : akiracomicart2@ or on inst@ akiraa_artly
