It all happened so fast. It was like a breeze of wind hitting me at Mach speed, I don't know what it was or what it all meant. At this very moment, I'm not quite sure who I am even, I just remember that moment, that moment of having been free after a long time and resting for eternity. The thought of loneliness pondered my mind as I got up from my office chair to realize no one was there and the whole office building was empty. I don't know why I was here. The terrifying thought of being left out all alone was one I would have nightmares of, but as I slowly looked around me I realized. I don't even know my name, I don't know who I am or what I look like, I was just there at that moment in time in the office. I thought to myself over and over again about who I was and why I was here, but nothing came to mind. I felt like I knew it but my brain couldn't function, I thought over and over again about who I was and why this place, had I been in a dream?

I found it rather hard to believe I was dreaming, everything around me felt real. The table in front of me was hard and solid as I ran my finger on the edge, yet there I was in an office with no one near me. I look at the other tables and booths just to find myself being alone. That thought of not knowing, that thought of being unaware, terrified me. "The oldest and strongest emotion of mankind is fear, and the oldest and strongest kind of fear is fear of the unknown." - H. P. Lovecraft.

That quote ran through my head as I realized I was the only one to go through this, why? Why was I the one to face this nightmare?

I thought again, and said to myself that this had to be a dream!

Of course, this was a dream! How stupid I must be to think this was my life!

I looked all around me, but it was all so real, I thought I could handle it but I couldn't it was all in my head. I thought I was lucid thinking I could make it end by closing and opening my eyes, thinking this nightmare would end. Yet it didn't. I was stuck in these barren walls, that static noise of the lights above me, I could hear my heart beat faster and faster. I tried to make myself believe that this was a dream and I'd wake up, thinking I was "lucid" but I wasn't.

Was the thought of me being lucid just me trying to escape reality?

Escape the nightmare that I was going through? I slowly felt my heart drop as I came upfront about it all, I was in a loop, going through the same rooms over and over again. I realized I wasn't dreaming but it was all real, it was real for me at that moment. I was as real and the things around me also were but how could I end up here? How do I not know who I am? It all rushed through my mind. As I slowly come to a stop and find myself in the middle of a playroom, an empty one at that with no trace of a human ever being there. I look behind me to see where the office door went, but all I find is a blank wall. It was so quiet, I just stood there looking all around me, looking at every playset. I was in the middle of it all, I could hear my heartbeat and the blood from my neck going up and down One final thought came to mind… Was this hell?
