Who am I?83Please respect copyright.PENANAWJjbilohYO
This question trills through my mind every second of the day.83Please respect copyright.PENANAD6eXsoNY4f
For 23 years of my life, I used to be a follower—a good child to my sensitive family.
I was a husband to my mother and a son to my father—except for the duty of being a daughter to my mother.
I had forgotten my dreams. It felt like sacrificing myself just for my family.83Please respect copyright.PENANAV67zHB5h82
But I couldn’t continue down that path, so I decided to choose myself for the first time and try to do something for me.
I came to Germany from a faraway country to study and find myself.83Please respect copyright.PENANAu7od9P3qFM
It’s been a year here in this beautiful city,83Please respect copyright.PENANA8dWfR2hu0Y
but I feel like I’m stuck.83Please respect copyright.PENANALSwzMJyp30
I don’t know what I want.83Please respect copyright.PENANAB4Fie7JaPG
I’m lost and filled with anger toward everything.
I used to sacrifice my dreams, but now—though I no longer want that—I’m still drowning in it...83Please respect copyright.PENANA602R2Xb7Ct
I want to have a dream.83Please respect copyright.PENANAXWvrFwitIW
Have a goal.83Please respect copyright.PENANAW4sK139KID
Try to achieve it...83Please respect copyright.PENANAFW8hntG3Lo
But I can’t.
When I open my eyes, I don’t know what I want.83Please respect copyright.PENANAvQBsMdcLrv
I know I want to want something—but what?
In the silence of night, in the darkness,83Please respect copyright.PENANAS91THz0L0G
I’m alone, trying to dream,83Please respect copyright.PENANAbexidWxPNB
but my mind can’t seem to dream...
But I’m here,83Please respect copyright.PENANAIovtZ5ZwHx
after a long journey,83Please respect copyright.PENANAAxXhoDeD0h
that I’ll write in tiny, minuscule parts...83Please respect copyright.PENANA54B4WrQUpE
