Who am I?25Please respect copyright.PENANAdAicmARvYc
This question trills through my mind every second of the day.25Please respect copyright.PENANAEBzfQ96JBt
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.25Please respect copyright.PENANAXi32xm8I90
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.25Please respect copyright.PENANAo710Hg6iL0
It’s been a year here in this beautiful city,25Please respect copyright.PENANASQtJp8DreE
but I feel like I’m stuck.25Please respect copyright.PENANAsdeHBNCDcq
I don’t know what I want.25Please respect copyright.PENANA9AmRi11sJq
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...25Please respect copyright.PENANAP3hNHDbrAK
I want to have a dream.25Please respect copyright.PENANA4YZKF8cSlN
Have a goal.25Please respect copyright.PENANA0kDtMv9AQR
Try to achieve it...25Please respect copyright.PENANAvJIp0pBQXj
But I can’t.
When I open my eyes, I don’t know what I want.25Please respect copyright.PENANA3THruDJJNu
I know I want to want something—but what?
In the silence of night, in the darkness,25Please respect copyright.PENANAWVZA2nDbHW
I’m alone, trying to dream,25Please respect copyright.PENANAz6E1YUVvO4
but my mind can’t seem to dream...
But I’m here,25Please respect copyright.PENANAV03bLGZKrt
after a long journey,25Please respect copyright.PENANASK1GTsV1Je
that I’ll write in tiny, minuscule parts...25Please respect copyright.PENANAGsDmAsS2Pp
