Who am I?89Please respect copyright.PENANAJReiurtkXH
This question trills through my mind every second of the day.89Please respect copyright.PENANAzu6P9Iv4Qv
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.89Please respect copyright.PENANALNS0kCwM0M
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.89Please respect copyright.PENANArMKZlyVwJu
It’s been a year here in this beautiful city,89Please respect copyright.PENANATGdSN6QkR4
but I feel like I’m stuck.89Please respect copyright.PENANAMXW5cVlTYo
I don’t know what I want.89Please respect copyright.PENANA431b83Tb11
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...89Please respect copyright.PENANAZqs4YvYSaY
I want to have a dream.89Please respect copyright.PENANAHkZ9WEYBeX
Have a goal.89Please respect copyright.PENANAUQGX6uZv2j
Try to achieve it...89Please respect copyright.PENANAN7HvWtzopE
But I can’t.
When I open my eyes, I don’t know what I want.89Please respect copyright.PENANARBeQgoTuNU
I know I want to want something—but what?
In the silence of night, in the darkness,89Please respect copyright.PENANAUlyIy7a8m2
I’m alone, trying to dream,89Please respect copyright.PENANAaWKXt6Gftm
but my mind can’t seem to dream...
But I’m here,89Please respect copyright.PENANAzQFpaVdclY
after a long journey,89Please respect copyright.PENANAoCVKkIGA1l
that I’ll write in tiny, minuscule parts...89Please respect copyright.PENANAcgEUPbqj1Q
