The first thing “it” felt was the blinding light. Surrounded by the surreal feeling of gentleness and warmth, “it” enjoyed a brief moment of peace. This warm, yet slightly prickly sensation could completely make one forget oneself. Forget oneself? Right, as if something was lost, but what was it? What was the thing that had been forgotten?

Before even thinking about it, “it” started to tremble all of a sudden. After a short moment of delay, its mind began to comprehend the feeling of coldness; a coldness that could easily penetrate the skin. Just like a newborn baby feeling cold for the first time. However the subject in mind didn’t have the luxury to experience it in full.

As if suddenly encountering the assault of a previously known yet forgotten sensation, “it” began to panic under the intense feeling of suffocation, and started to struggle.

Lungs, body, every single cell within the body screamed for oxygen, the pain was unbearable. Unable to remain calm and to think, the only thing “it” could do was to struggle.

Without being able to exercise any control of the body, the only thing “it” could do was to struggle painfully under duress. All of the pain and suffering had easily clouded its consciousness, and then, as if finally liberated from the human existence which had not cried for the longest of time, the body started to cry instinctively.

With the consciousness murky and the sense of self a mess, “it” opened its eyes to a gray sky. A blurry world… No, perhaps it was only its vision that was blurred? It was a twisted world seen through unfitting spectacles. The outlines were blurry and the colours chaotic, even “it” who had not felt as much emotions in all those years began to sense the unease.

After what felt objectively to be about 3 years, “it” finally started to gain back its consciousness and form, feeling only pure confusion.
