Who am I?136Please respect copyright.PENANAPI96Xi0cf1
This question trills through my mind every second of the day.136Please respect copyright.PENANA2IGwKrntR9
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.136Please respect copyright.PENANA4w9ImlTrVp
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.136Please respect copyright.PENANAF8nobMr8Zg
It’s been a year here in this beautiful city,136Please respect copyright.PENANATWdZyHL7xE
but I feel like I’m stuck.136Please respect copyright.PENANAw7bhj4zqOg
I don’t know what I want.136Please respect copyright.PENANAcLwMcUNSxA
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...136Please respect copyright.PENANAhWdjXrq9Ff
I want to have a dream.136Please respect copyright.PENANAhx0V7EzFRE
Have a goal.136Please respect copyright.PENANAQOUlSYe3hT
Try to achieve it...136Please respect copyright.PENANAWD5i7e1RTa
But I can’t.
When I open my eyes, I don’t know what I want.136Please respect copyright.PENANAjS6nIdwPqj
I know I want to want something—but what?
In the silence of night, in the darkness,136Please respect copyright.PENANAtJ6LBb7DKd
I’m alone, trying to dream,136Please respect copyright.PENANARSlKrUydxd
but my mind can’t seem to dream...
But I’m here,136Please respect copyright.PENANAI1DYPblVnY
after a long journey,136Please respect copyright.PENANAo4rrtROijj
that I’ll write in tiny, minuscule parts...136Please respect copyright.PENANAszQZlQ15EZ
