The Town Without Me by Kayo Hinazuki

When I get bigger, big enough to go somewhere by myself,

I want to go to a land that's far way.
I want to go to a faraway island.
I want to go to an island that has no people.
I want to go to an island that has no pain or sadness.
On that island, I can climb a tree when I want to climb, swim in the sea when I want
to swim, and sleep when I want to sleep.
When I think about the town without me, I feel a sense of relief.
I want to go far, far away.
