It’s been a long day,1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIRC3Ac6Evr
and I’ve got little to say.1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRyLsrcmbco
The pressure of everyday life is getting me down,1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcL9AOxdEYG
and I just need anything to break my pungent frown.1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTtMVL36nSr
So, I grab my earbuds and my MP31851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqG5CGc8eD4
and when I sit down for peace and quiet, he sits close to me.1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB9PBXEtDNW
1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZpjcRK2Pd
No words dared to part from our lips1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1A6nVZntP
as we avoid holding hands, yet sat tied by our hips.1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡseMJIiIddi
We listened to Music together silently,1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9uVvWHreR
respecting the other’s company and space leisurely.1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMwXVAIilrx
I used to enjoy the rampant, bustling sounds of Music,1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfRtghQGMxJ
an experience no more or less fascinating than magic.
I keep the volume of the Music low,1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCUHBcUhqSG
so that I can hear the sounds of Nature and Music together flow.1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfsFUBKX33A
I hear the chirping of the birds,1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1JdsFVh3TT
I hear their every songlike word.1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11BjLgc1vI
I hear the whispers of the breeze,1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHqIIHIsd3m
as they brush their way past me and the trees.
The sounds of the world hum gently into my unbudded ear,1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXwvKPKtI6
while my MP3 tries to consume all that I hear.1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOk4YuRscL
The Music playing was his favorite kind,1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUVu4XeD7i3
and although it wasn’t mine I didn’t mind.1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRxWfm4l0Mq
His music was quite chaotic and crazy,1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtGQiKUo8f3
while I preferred sounds more quiet and lazy.
It is why I preferred the tender sounds of Nature,1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsjlGeQT1W1
sounds that in my lonesome have come a long way from being a stranger.1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMoglwPQlq3
I like to take things nice and slow,1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuI9Bh8NcHe
like how Nature takes its time to develop and grow.1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyv469vAjkn
But Music grows much too fast with no time to unwind,1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKoses10cIc
and if you cannot catch up you’ll be left behind.
One would normally think that Nature and Music combined couldn’t blend.1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOf8AnHLdWF
However, the two forces together managed to call the other “friend.”1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyMhqGPzmBn
They grew up together from seeds to flowers,1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRnBRC4Gm21
living life blissfully in the clouds like the tops of towers.1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjn7lQAzMFI
You see, Music and Nature are one and the same,1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84GDdJIiXQ
but they are also as alike as a boombox to a flame.
The soft resonances of the natural world are Music to my ears.1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuWnzhxdfd2
They fill with me up with so many emotions, and even my fears.1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6lA4aU1Sk3
It reminds me of how scared I am to move on and let go,1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrY4BCZO1mH
all because Music grew up too fast and Nature too slow.1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRcnYU8JaUS
As time can often move slow I may still be the same,1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGrMF1ujfLd
while he may leave me behind as nothing more than a name.
In the end, the Music from my MP3, as it must, comes to a halt.1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIGMfEAH05W
The world he and I shared splits apart hastily by an emotional fault.1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyueqSdLl8L
We go our separate ways without uttering a single word,1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKlAAVj7BGs
and the lines between Music and Nature no longer seem so blurred.1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMaqjpIwYCU
Music and Nature can go together, but there was something driving us apart.1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7v5s5uQ2RH
He and I in some strange, natural way could not fully love the other’s heart.
“Goodbye!” I finally reached him with a cry.1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmeIAxRILzI
With a wretched smile he yelled back, “Goodbye!”1851Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSVw04qEiiR
