Who am I?176Please respect copyright.PENANA0L8GUBqFIp
This question trills through my mind every second of the day.176Please respect copyright.PENANAInqXwLfOGF
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.176Please respect copyright.PENANAafffSJ2EiX
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.176Please respect copyright.PENANAIegSas8JSJ
It’s been a year here in this beautiful city,176Please respect copyright.PENANAsk03sIgxLC
but I feel like I’m stuck.176Please respect copyright.PENANAkwRdJVi7eg
I don’t know what I want.176Please respect copyright.PENANAtIlRrxzIKI
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...176Please respect copyright.PENANApFXZ230egS
I want to have a dream.176Please respect copyright.PENANAF5STCHtykc
Have a goal.176Please respect copyright.PENANAlOv1ei3owW
Try to achieve it...176Please respect copyright.PENANAalfVT41x8y
But I can’t.
When I open my eyes, I don’t know what I want.176Please respect copyright.PENANAoyAXc3DJ0F
I know I want to want something—but what?
In the silence of night, in the darkness,176Please respect copyright.PENANAKXrmJndKOU
I’m alone, trying to dream,176Please respect copyright.PENANALQRa3Od5j9
but my mind can’t seem to dream...
But I’m here,176Please respect copyright.PENANAGnJyClJo0i
after a long journey,176Please respect copyright.PENANAo79xw6kNMX
that I’ll write in tiny, minuscule parts...176Please respect copyright.PENANAAnDPvzdHKl
