It was silent.

It was dark.

It was cold.

It was scary.

It was blank.

It was her mind.

˜⠴⠴⠴

I woke without a memory. I woke without a name. I woke on a boat. I woke alone. I woke feeling ill. I woke confused.

Who am I?

Why can't I remember anything?

I try to reach into my mind. I try to remember simple things—my name, my mother's face, my dog's name, my boyfriend's touch.

Wait.

Did I have a dog? Did I have a boyfriend? Did I have a mother? Did I have a name?

Who am I?!?!

The only thing I find in my mind...

...are screams in the silence.
