Forgot Why I Came In

I crossed the threshold like a soldier entering enemy territory. The room was silent. Too silent.

I stood there… frozen. Because whatever mission I had? Gone. Vanished.

Wiped from history. Moments ago, I KNEW. There was purpose in my stride.

Urgency. Destiny. And now? Nothing but the hum of the lights

and my own breathing getting louder. I scan the room like a detective at a cold case.

The couch. The table. The suspiciously judgmental chair in the corner.

None of them speak. My brain starts lying. “Maybe you came in here to exist.”

No. I didn’t risk everything for vibes. Panic sets in. I retrace my steps
