Adel Almalki

A Girl From Riyadh Adel Almalki

I was only trying to live, but it is not that simple. No one can just sit alone on the edge of the universe and ask fate to leave him to live in peace. I was seeking my way towards the light, searching for myself, for a familiar face, searching for something within me to be recreated. I was trying to live, or even to die, trying to break the shackles that were condemning me to a slow death. I was searching for something to prove I existed, to prove that the essence that was lying deep beneath my ribs was still beating, searching for my identity that others have stolen from me since the day I was born.
