It’s been a long day,1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHC6D26L07D
and I’ve got little to say.1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2biSZD63sG
The pressure of everyday life is getting me down,1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXkbqoKLKY2
and I just need anything to break my pungent frown.1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwEvPC4XQ4
So, I grab my earbuds and my MP31721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIoUcbA4eIx
and when I sit down for peace and quiet, he sits close to me.1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0I8e1Tk0fu
1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFDksp03Di
No words dared to part from our lips1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZEuAgPcAO
as we avoid holding hands, yet sat tied by our hips.1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAeUQsm0xEr
We listened to Music together silently,1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIe5JtcxAlU
respecting the other’s company and space leisurely.1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83R2sWWX8I
I used to enjoy the rampant, bustling sounds of Music,1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzdisiRtYoI
an experience no more or less fascinating than magic.
I keep the volume of the Music low,1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhHKMhndFUY
so that I can hear the sounds of Nature and Music together flow.1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzTAQuZydcf
I hear the chirping of the birds,1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmV0Zbr6viZ
I hear their every songlike word.1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmWpr3j7zSl
I hear the whispers of the breeze,1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8I5qSjCjH
as they brush their way past me and the trees.
The sounds of the world hum gently into my unbudded ear,1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Bq9DfN2IJ
while my MP3 tries to consume all that I hear.1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS0kOdUwRzs
The Music playing was his favorite kind,1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKNaBvZNbFd
and although it wasn’t mine I didn’t mind.1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX70TB1eeP4
His music was quite chaotic and crazy,1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQ0YikwIbC
while I preferred sounds more quiet and lazy.
It is why I preferred the tender sounds of Nature,1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡauTYHVNEvt
sounds that in my lonesome have come a long way from being a stranger.1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD5fEkt7wRy
I like to take things nice and slow,1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡASvS88Mzqu
like how Nature takes its time to develop and grow.1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHv9frzlCI
But Music grows much too fast with no time to unwind,1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlNMFP9RWxi
and if you cannot catch up you’ll be left behind.
One would normally think that Nature and Music combined couldn’t blend.1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcSbJcWgRgn
However, the two forces together managed to call the other “friend.”1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡixMmAwx7Co
They grew up together from seeds to flowers,1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡybuzjQt9Ek
living life blissfully in the clouds like the tops of towers.1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5n71Hxbrh
You see, Music and Nature are one and the same,1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoP8m9nW8RI
but they are also as alike as a boombox to a flame.
The soft resonances of the natural world are Music to my ears.1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5t699WpWfe
They fill with me up with so many emotions, and even my fears.1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM7tNTK8k5Z
It reminds me of how scared I am to move on and let go,1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgnRdpgQpHW
all because Music grew up too fast and Nature too slow.1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNzoULTt4M
As time can often move slow I may still be the same,1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjbwCTbq0jG
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.1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtFaDxnsoRY
The world he and I shared splits apart hastily by an emotional fault.1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0EiqAr1jtk
We go our separate ways without uttering a single word,1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYv3zfUOwZi
and the lines between Music and Nature no longer seem so blurred.1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN3dW7DSTAm
Music and Nature can go together, but there was something driving us apart.1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4Wc5G0ld0
He and I in some strange, natural way could not fully love the other’s heart.
“Goodbye!” I finally reached him with a cry.1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW1E7dE5SQl
With a wretched smile he yelled back, “Goodbye!”1721Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1bfONFeom
