It’s been a long day,1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwWQhEaJoy
and I’ve got little to say.1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDpIKNDkJA
The pressure of everyday life is getting me down,1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpv90NvAI32
and I just need anything to break my pungent frown.1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhlabC7OADE
So, I grab my earbuds and my MP31881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCujEOEhWYL
and when I sit down for peace and quiet, he sits close to me.1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZmgmkcPtJv
1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17wbgUggXJ
No words dared to part from our lips1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhgMZpsz0A
as we avoid holding hands, yet sat tied by our hips.1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrtOuzFU1Jv
We listened to Music together silently,1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLqEebYFXdm
respecting the other’s company and space leisurely.1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlftngrpQdr
I used to enjoy the rampant, bustling sounds of Music,1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtyewot4SaQ
an experience no more or less fascinating than magic.
I keep the volume of the Music low,1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVd18S0Va6
so that I can hear the sounds of Nature and Music together flow.1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqzAtzP5h0
I hear the chirping of the birds,1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQl4feFNPk4
I hear their every songlike word.1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiNERidMsxS
I hear the whispers of the breeze,1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5RJB7iCk9S
as they brush their way past me and the trees.
The sounds of the world hum gently into my unbudded ear,1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLk2Epr3oxy
while my MP3 tries to consume all that I hear.1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8gp7r642sc
The Music playing was his favorite kind,1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdfud9lenxL
and although it wasn’t mine I didn’t mind.1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmz5bgnWqTw
His music was quite chaotic and crazy,1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgJ81CxXCg
while I preferred sounds more quiet and lazy.
It is why I preferred the tender sounds of Nature,1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyB2ahKcwRM
sounds that in my lonesome have come a long way from being a stranger.1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeYTToROZKy
I like to take things nice and slow,1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhmKEczfGI
like how Nature takes its time to develop and grow.1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7OA1mP0Xh
But Music grows much too fast with no time to unwind,1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwFo8QBsgZs
and if you cannot catch up you’ll be left behind.
One would normally think that Nature and Music combined couldn’t blend.1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgwfmNV8MJa
However, the two forces together managed to call the other “friend.”1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4sGYwn5s6
They grew up together from seeds to flowers,1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGWTtOyJ4e3
living life blissfully in the clouds like the tops of towers.1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1bGlqfjns
You see, Music and Nature are one and the same,1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwSBDd6d5O
but they are also as alike as a boombox to a flame.
The soft resonances of the natural world are Music to my ears.1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEpPDXlCbJQ
They fill with me up with so many emotions, and even my fears.1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4qCCaayGC
It reminds me of how scared I am to move on and let go,1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlOC4UAZ6nv
all because Music grew up too fast and Nature too slow.1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzyEwyWysKW
As time can often move slow I may still be the same,1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJG0NveGC2W
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.1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO9xxDid3Up
The world he and I shared splits apart hastily by an emotional fault.1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhYwEpYnxyD
We go our separate ways without uttering a single word,1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljFFKWrMZH
and the lines between Music and Nature no longer seem so blurred.1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuyblLy8v4y
Music and Nature can go together, but there was something driving us apart.1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJV7WNgtJo
He and I in some strange, natural way could not fully love the other’s heart.
“Goodbye!” I finally reached him with a cry.1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaCCDJQdU7P
With a wretched smile he yelled back, “Goodbye!”1881Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUoW3UDaBXp
