Pain

The boborygmous sound I hear
As if a choir has found a habitation in my tummy
My throat so dry, longing for water
The ocean of tears, now like a desert
I can't see, my eyes so edematous
Trying to take a step, the cracks under my feet so painful
Trying to scream, no voice is coming out
All I hear is a whimper if not a whisper
I'm trying to run away, but I'm still on the same spot 
All I'm doing is staggering like a drunkard
