Pain?

What do you understand by pain?
Is it the kind where you can still say, “I’m not okay...” while tears fall from your eyes?
Or is it that kind of pain... where your mouth goes completely silent, your eyes become still, your chest feels unbearably heavy, and your breath feels stuck somewhere inside...
Where thousands of thoughts keep screaming in your head, but not a single word comes out of your throat...
Tell me... Which pain do we actually notice? The one whose tears we can see... or the one who quietly becomes numb?
