In your head

it's all in your head 
yes, it's all in my head 
that's quite literally 
the problem, in my head is 
my brain, a vital organ

they call it mental illness
but a broken brain harm's
the body 

so, telling someone
"it's all in your head" is 
as useless as telling 
someone having a 
heart attack 
"it's all in your heart"

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
