Transient pain
I'm in the middle of the city; the streets are crowded. A lot of people are coming from everywhere and heading to nowhere. I stare at the faces hoping to recognize a familiar one, but in vain. I forgot how I got here and certainly I'm not dreaming. And now that my legs can't hold me anymore and my ears can't stand the noise, it all became silent and I fell! That sudden deafness that I enjoyed and those injuries on my knees that I couldn't feel, made me unexpectedly relieved!Is it my brain playing me some wicked games on me?
I closed my eyes and i lost all my senses and i dove into an endless dark sea. I couldn't reach the surface and i started to suffocate, just like my body was trying to get rid of my soul!
I could hear my heart beating so fast, the blood running in my veins, the sweat droplets washing my skin.
I was agonizing, until i tasted that sweet cube melting on my tongue, and got lifted by those strong muscled arms!
A voice said: "Don t worry guys, she is hypoglycemic"...
N.B. - Pretty good! If this were spoken it would be nearly perfect, but are some minor improvements to make with the formalities of writing. Remember "I" is always capitalized. This is important. Also, there is always a space after a comma in English. There is almost always a comma before "but" too. Connect two complete related sentences with a semi-colon. A comma can't do that. The first letter after a colon is capitalized.
Transient pain
I'm in the city centre middle of the city and the streets are crowded. A lot of people are coming from everywhere and heading going nowhere. I look stare at the faces hoping to recognize a familiar one, but in vain. I forget OR I've forgotten how I got here but and certainly I'm not dreaming. aAnd now that my legs can't hold me any more and my ears can no longer stand the noise, it all becomes silent and I fallell!Your tense is a bit confused in this paragraph. Mostly you used the present tense ('I'm in the city centre') but then later you started using the past tense without any transition. In the above, I've made it consistently present tense.
That sudden deafness which that I enjoyed and those injuries on my knees which that I couldn't feel, unexpectedly relieved me! Re: 'injuries on my knees', it's unclear whether you're talking about not being able to feel the initial impact of falling on your knees, or the bruises you have afterwards.
Is it my brain playing me some wicked game with me?
My eyes shut and I lost all my senses and I dove into an endless dark sea. I couldn't reach the surface and I started to suffocate, just as if like my body were trying to get rid of my soul!
I could hear my heart beating so fast, the blood running through in my veins, the sweat droplets washing my skin. Usually you'd say 'AND sweat droplets washing my skin' here, but the use of a comma instead is emotive so I haven't corrected it.
It was agonizing, until I tasted that sweet cube melting on my tongue, and felt my body got lifted by those strong, muscled arms!
A voice said: "Don't worry guys, she had hypoglycemia"...
Sounds horrible. Not nice for this to happen in the city. I think you've described the experience extremely well, but you need to be careful with your tense. Also, as a narrative, it's sometimes a bit inconsistent re your state of consciousness.
