I'd have told him to put me down, but my heart had filled my throat, and I couldn't speak around it.

He seemed suddenly not to have enough breath to fill his throat.

A clicking sound filled his throat as he lay there.

He could still feel the tears and the thickness that filled his throat.

A new dread filled his throat until he could hardly breathe.

And he could not answer Mother because of the lump that filled his throat.

The sick light intensified and filled his throat like water.

Blood filled the man's throat and he began to choke.

He tried to call out for help, but water filled his throat.

A bitterness old enough to feel tired filled my throat.
