I keep walking aimlessly
Life goes on, the days go by, and I don't really know where I'm going
I know that I try to be faithful to my desires, those inexplicable ones, you know?
Those desires that are born in my gut, in the core of my being
Impulses shown by intuition, without reason, conscious or not
I feel trapped in an endless nightmare
Since I was born
In a body that doesn't belong to me
In a family that never understood me
In relationships that I never fit in
In groups that never see me completely
Because I never really knew who I am
I don't feel like I live in my own skin
I don't feel like I breathe the air that enters my lungs
Sometimes I only feel the pain
That lives in the soul
That pulses inside this body too
It's the only thing in common that we share

Currently on my postdoc, I've been studying Chemistry over 13 years, but the only thing that kept me going was journaling my feelings, writing poems and drawing on my notebooks. Now, I finally decide to share a bit here. Hope you enjoy :)
