How I so often wish to step back.

To retreat to a distant and watch
from afar this frenetic human world
spinning along its way, while safely
resting out here in the peaceful
silence that is nature's embrace.

To no longer be gripped by the ruthless
gravity of a system that serves only to
drag me down to my darkest of all feeling.

To be shielded from the
eternal chaos it maintains.

Cured of the crippling pressure
it applies and to be liberated from
the heart-stopping anguish that fills
its confines to bursting.

To live forever in solitude...

A lone refugee...

An escapist...

A free man!
