It’s been a long day,1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIoCnwEhiRj
and I’ve got little to say.1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLX1HUvcQx2
The pressure of everyday life is getting me down,1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4s0T2s3RL
and I just need anything to break my pungent frown.1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5zhlb0hXG
So, I grab my earbuds and my MP31817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv9yOCHhVf1
and when I sit down for peace and quiet, he sits close to me.1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoa7NMtpfxy
1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKPEypIET77
No words dared to part from our lips1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUiN7F8Uz51
as we avoid holding hands, yet sat tied by our hips.1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXK7mTtMphZ
We listened to Music together silently,1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvUEmbZLii
respecting the other’s company and space leisurely.1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡstdpgxIhJ9
I used to enjoy the rampant, bustling sounds of Music,1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCSwaY5TM02
an experience no more or less fascinating than magic.
I keep the volume of the Music low,1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrRzqFIiP50
so that I can hear the sounds of Nature and Music together flow.1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJ2koJZNeZ
I hear the chirping of the birds,1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHcgBJK6qz
I hear their every songlike word.1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRicGC6BPuf
I hear the whispers of the breeze,1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2A0ZaQceB6
as they brush their way past me and the trees.
The sounds of the world hum gently into my unbudded ear,1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡay9TWowU6x
while my MP3 tries to consume all that I hear.1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdAZpLzIDF
The Music playing was his favorite kind,1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVgasJSDK1
and although it wasn’t mine I didn’t mind.1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVmFZ1R41dl
His music was quite chaotic and crazy,1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVGXzmliokp
while I preferred sounds more quiet and lazy.
It is why I preferred the tender sounds of Nature,1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHLzy0XDH7
sounds that in my lonesome have come a long way from being a stranger.1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzYzlqmST9J
I like to take things nice and slow,1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6pMNbZFZk
like how Nature takes its time to develop and grow.1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyz6n9uOtRD
But Music grows much too fast with no time to unwind,1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Z8YkN1OsE
and if you cannot catch up you’ll be left behind.
One would normally think that Nature and Music combined couldn’t blend.1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjfAMpTJwy9
However, the two forces together managed to call the other “friend.”1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhknepNFYY
They grew up together from seeds to flowers,1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3y7VN8Tb4
living life blissfully in the clouds like the tops of towers.1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8eueZbrxC2
You see, Music and Nature are one and the same,1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwqRYBEaIE
but they are also as alike as a boombox to a flame.
The soft resonances of the natural world are Music to my ears.1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7EKcatuKQb
They fill with me up with so many emotions, and even my fears.1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5hEmHFkym7
It reminds me of how scared I am to move on and let go,1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6EFQXdqt4Q
all because Music grew up too fast and Nature too slow.1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKh5V6Sb7aX
As time can often move slow I may still be the same,1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb55urAghhG
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.1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6P95yugcZx
The world he and I shared splits apart hastily by an emotional fault.1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtjqWcvmqwY
We go our separate ways without uttering a single word,1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcLPRRFcoJG
and the lines between Music and Nature no longer seem so blurred.1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenZMAvRytQ
Music and Nature can go together, but there was something driving us apart.1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh85ltuPwp7
He and I in some strange, natural way could not fully love the other’s heart.
“Goodbye!” I finally reached him with a cry.1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7jl7dGD7ZS
With a wretched smile he yelled back, “Goodbye!”1817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGftg5k16Mo
