Assuming it is an automatic, and you don't have any forward gear except second, you are probably in "limp-in mode". Something has failed in the control circuit for the transmission (computer, relay, wiring etc.), and the transmission defaults to the single gear to allow you to drive at reduced speeds to a repair facility, or just to get to a safe place to call for help.
