Riku - Captivity

Sometimes I used to climb the inaccessible heights of the islands, alone and without someone knowing. I once heard of the monks who used to live on bald mountains with no company but a bowl of rice and the wind. We laughed at them and then forgot, but when I felt the need to struggle my way through the confused branches, I wished for nothing more but to feel the calmness of smooth rock. Now that I cannot go back to where I loved to be, I know - I have always been searching for peace in the places it was not to be found.
Now when I close my eyes upon smooth darkness, I am at peace with where I loved to be without to long - the beach, the woods, the heart of laughter.

I reached for you but you were gone, so I'm going too.
