It’s been a long day,1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSMWSYqtrd
and I’ve got little to say.1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4bHtVHjBl
The pressure of everyday life is getting me down,1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNCMinuk6h3
and I just need anything to break my pungent frown.1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNnNrvh3lx5
So, I grab my earbuds and my MP31843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsS0LmpmO1U
and when I sit down for peace and quiet, he sits close to me.1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhZ1Z5SRDmg
1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMP9twiXxZ
No words dared to part from our lips1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSe7v0BbVCD
as we avoid holding hands, yet sat tied by our hips.1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0sMaoN8izZ
We listened to Music together silently,1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQvlBp8YJN
respecting the other’s company and space leisurely.1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ8pQKqb2x3
I used to enjoy the rampant, bustling sounds of Music,1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpDb6uIPID
an experience no more or less fascinating than magic.
I keep the volume of the Music low,1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlFD2MwAHjp
so that I can hear the sounds of Nature and Music together flow.1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKa6pwKX8JD
I hear the chirping of the birds,1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHUmHfphpao
I hear their every songlike word.1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAeRodqGIh3
I hear the whispers of the breeze,1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv15Dzg4QrE
as they brush their way past me and the trees.
The sounds of the world hum gently into my unbudded ear,1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaq9Pphw3wn
while my MP3 tries to consume all that I hear.1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb4e6Nng8nH
The Music playing was his favorite kind,1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡExyDHKLXYK
and although it wasn’t mine I didn’t mind.1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlsrfXm93rp
His music was quite chaotic and crazy,1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlLg1Isfte8
while I preferred sounds more quiet and lazy.
It is why I preferred the tender sounds of Nature,1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzgUnGHhgNL
sounds that in my lonesome have come a long way from being a stranger.1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5vZKAKl77v
I like to take things nice and slow,1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKpAowZji0h
like how Nature takes its time to develop and grow.1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU3iwLskEc8
But Music grows much too fast with no time to unwind,1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJKnnnOQJlD
and if you cannot catch up you’ll be left behind.
One would normally think that Nature and Music combined couldn’t blend.1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwo2owEjhzS
However, the two forces together managed to call the other “friend.”1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkaGr5JANvJ
They grew up together from seeds to flowers,1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7z6hnvutkS
living life blissfully in the clouds like the tops of towers.1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVn7r2qB4de
You see, Music and Nature are one and the same,1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY6yZJNjhwx
but they are also as alike as a boombox to a flame.
The soft resonances of the natural world are Music to my ears.1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1OD9KVEJg
They fill with me up with so many emotions, and even my fears.1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKftXgbOjI
It reminds me of how scared I am to move on and let go,1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLv2ykA9rU
all because Music grew up too fast and Nature too slow.1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSDI2cm4wzx
As time can often move slow I may still be the same,1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡioOZzkDfIu
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.1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhPfSMs3y7K
The world he and I shared splits apart hastily by an emotional fault.1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgts1zjaEw2
We go our separate ways without uttering a single word,1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqYKCmEQgy
and the lines between Music and Nature no longer seem so blurred.1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzLIzKRmqw
Music and Nature can go together, but there was something driving us apart.1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVwv56hQn3p
He and I in some strange, natural way could not fully love the other’s heart.
“Goodbye!” I finally reached him with a cry.1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ03AjotzMiL
With a wretched smile he yelled back, “Goodbye!”1843Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZy1lOjr1O
