It’s been a long day,1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7O3YLsySL
and I’ve got little to say.1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXxeeosjrG
The pressure of everyday life is getting me down,1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlpf39J2Lfp
and I just need anything to break my pungent frown.1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrYpz2ciBV6
So, I grab my earbuds and my MP31821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4MWEMyPJ0
and when I sit down for peace and quiet, he sits close to me.1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Gr2bzTuXT
1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNXY6bHfapD
No words dared to part from our lips1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UIwo0UaYJ
as we avoid holding hands, yet sat tied by our hips.1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUlu6MAfSbK
We listened to Music together silently,1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk7mr6I36QT
respecting the other’s company and space leisurely.1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWzTeqfPWNj
I used to enjoy the rampant, bustling sounds of Music,1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUtAgVpgkVu
an experience no more or less fascinating than magic.
I keep the volume of the Music low,1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT1BJRWzoi2
so that I can hear the sounds of Nature and Music together flow.1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWnYpEUQVun
I hear the chirping of the birds,1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHenMVFkU9r
I hear their every songlike word.1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1dtDnOazjb
I hear the whispers of the breeze,1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWe4EO7rMZN
as they brush their way past me and the trees.
The sounds of the world hum gently into my unbudded ear,1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMpMgC33Wt
while my MP3 tries to consume all that I hear.1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6mKHddeOdw
The Music playing was his favorite kind,1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8DCyeQq2V
and although it wasn’t mine I didn’t mind.1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8uAAFI5f3O
His music was quite chaotic and crazy,1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPsToEXiabW
while I preferred sounds more quiet and lazy.
It is why I preferred the tender sounds of Nature,1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zHYulfb5j
sounds that in my lonesome have come a long way from being a stranger.1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ36GOxXKZG
I like to take things nice and slow,1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygyYYSmXDO
like how Nature takes its time to develop and grow.1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCS2y9qef8Z
But Music grows much too fast with no time to unwind,1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOaCREXbcVG
and if you cannot catch up you’ll be left behind.
One would normally think that Nature and Music combined couldn’t blend.1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPrdZHFiZyt
However, the two forces together managed to call the other “friend.”1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU8Pigp7iEV
They grew up together from seeds to flowers,1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡExNVTDkk9o
living life blissfully in the clouds like the tops of towers.1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGIda5TKCUH
You see, Music and Nature are one and the same,1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrCqfGZPWA
but they are also as alike as a boombox to a flame.
The soft resonances of the natural world are Music to my ears.1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xgk39B0X2
They fill with me up with so many emotions, and even my fears.1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4RHGESqZ6
It reminds me of how scared I am to move on and let go,1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiDrjaFqXGT
all because Music grew up too fast and Nature too slow.1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSo2L3kWPy
As time can often move slow I may still be the same,1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBXPhnF27FT
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.1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kBFQWCTzx
The world he and I shared splits apart hastily by an emotional fault.1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOd11SAvul4
We go our separate ways without uttering a single word,1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBKayrRTRDa
and the lines between Music and Nature no longer seem so blurred.1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJ3DEECl3D
Music and Nature can go together, but there was something driving us apart.1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4PYk1WeHmO
He and I in some strange, natural way could not fully love the other’s heart.
“Goodbye!” I finally reached him with a cry.1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUoDA5ccbOr
With a wretched smile he yelled back, “Goodbye!”1821Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMRrmMLCbI
