Who am I?62Please respect copyright.PENANAfXdaP1dA2z
This question trills through my mind every second of the day.62Please respect copyright.PENANAFrDLbSspdl
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.62Please respect copyright.PENANAOeGS7hHcX6
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.62Please respect copyright.PENANAFlmIytDoh8
It’s been a year here in this beautiful city,62Please respect copyright.PENANA37esEvdAOx
but I feel like I’m stuck.62Please respect copyright.PENANAxO9v1Rktnk
I don’t know what I want.62Please respect copyright.PENANABIAax5xFea
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...62Please respect copyright.PENANAfYPZ41ZkaL
I want to have a dream.62Please respect copyright.PENANANEj4754fx5
Have a goal.62Please respect copyright.PENANADHfEuPMOO0
Try to achieve it...62Please respect copyright.PENANAhXsHOIMaZD
But I can’t.
When I open my eyes, I don’t know what I want.62Please respect copyright.PENANAIHT6jwlKnc
I know I want to want something—but what?
In the silence of night, in the darkness,62Please respect copyright.PENANAc5eQx3WGbH
I’m alone, trying to dream,62Please respect copyright.PENANADYVvK5osfd
but my mind can’t seem to dream...
But I’m here,62Please respect copyright.PENANArZ1Y9j1jce
after a long journey,62Please respect copyright.PENANAdtGO2F8yM1
that I’ll write in tiny, minuscule parts...62Please respect copyright.PENANA31teyamUab
