Who am I?59Please respect copyright.PENANAzfx8RueuQe
This question trills through my mind every second of the day.59Please respect copyright.PENANAtrNEPbYZBi
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.59Please respect copyright.PENANAxzN95EL1t6
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.59Please respect copyright.PENANAAivCXfcIYG
It’s been a year here in this beautiful city,59Please respect copyright.PENANAsQWu1IZ3yq
but I feel like I’m stuck.59Please respect copyright.PENANANH3onIoelj
I don’t know what I want.59Please respect copyright.PENANAH1RJY6FZTU
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...59Please respect copyright.PENANAJbG7sivbQU
I want to have a dream.59Please respect copyright.PENANApNsOEbjtpg
Have a goal.59Please respect copyright.PENANAlPsCJFzJnL
Try to achieve it...59Please respect copyright.PENANAlLuGoOxQ6r
But I can’t.
When I open my eyes, I don’t know what I want.59Please respect copyright.PENANAg2DdObgurE
I know I want to want something—but what?
In the silence of night, in the darkness,59Please respect copyright.PENANArZ2Bf66XMK
I’m alone, trying to dream,59Please respect copyright.PENANAxli9Yp010E
but my mind can’t seem to dream...
But I’m here,59Please respect copyright.PENANAv8RQzFeNdq
after a long journey,59Please respect copyright.PENANAw9Ba7JBzzk
that I’ll write in tiny, minuscule parts...59Please respect copyright.PENANA5GRAiBELXF
