Who am I?191Please respect copyright.PENANACxLN5uOzUg
This question trills through my mind every second of the day.191Please respect copyright.PENANA3sAVeQHoWW
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.191Please respect copyright.PENANATxSjuc1Cut
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.191Please respect copyright.PENANAdJFyYhZpZf
I came to Germany from a faraway country to study and find myself.191Please respect copyright.PENANA5dGPg0xLQU
It’s been a year here in this beautiful city,191Please respect copyright.PENANAadRKA50NIr
but I feel like I’m stuck.191Please respect copyright.PENANAqS4ggdiItT
I don’t know what I want.191Please respect copyright.PENANALnnffd2HIr
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...191Please respect copyright.PENANAbPmfkVpIsT
I want to have a dream.191Please respect copyright.PENANAkiLoFdE9Me
Have a goal.191Please respect copyright.PENANASjYQRV8JBc
Try to achieve it...191Please respect copyright.PENANAojvogY7HPR
But I can’t.
When I open my eyes, I don’t know what I want.191Please respect copyright.PENANAGCoUIReumw
I know I want to want something—but what?
In the silence of night, in the darkness,191Please respect copyright.PENANAAtEaVgUFTd
I’m alone, trying to dream,191Please respect copyright.PENANA1WP0gmh968
but my mind can’t seem to dream...
But I’m here,191Please respect copyright.PENANAIZpETY8uSy
after a long journey,191Please respect copyright.PENANAKGcLYK56O9
that I’ll write in tiny, minuscule parts...191Please respect copyright.PENANA5xaexVhDRW
