I want to take a walk. Escape the current horrors of our modern society. Take me to a place I've never been, and leave me there. I want to start fresh again. To see the sun reflect beautifully off the evergreens, it's all I need. I am restless. Take me now, now, now. I don't care where, and I don't care how. I just need to get out. I want to take THE walk of life and love, and no matter how much I want happiness to come easy, it can't and probably wont ever come. So, here I go...

The world that we live in has been corrupt by greed, lust, and dishonesty. I just want to escape to a place that is clean of all of our impurities.
