It’s been a long day,1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQ55AJGMiq
and I’ve got little to say.1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTH4rQavhVi
The pressure of everyday life is getting me down,1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7VZ4QizrIq
and I just need anything to break my pungent frown.1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4BNuPp7hQ
So, I grab my earbuds and my MP31707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡncffurZvU3
and when I sit down for peace and quiet, he sits close to me.1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK4gAVt08k8
1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK30TZCOpDV
No words dared to part from our lips1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3UFiquFjA
as we avoid holding hands, yet sat tied by our hips.1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7t8jCHRo2l
We listened to Music together silently,1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEo1EBB9qq3
respecting the other’s company and space leisurely.1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFo9fH4Sefi
I used to enjoy the rampant, bustling sounds of Music,1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZnmTxjiJ1
an experience no more or less fascinating than magic.
I keep the volume of the Music low,1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUtZwRfNlT
so that I can hear the sounds of Nature and Music together flow.1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5kspwplQ8l
I hear the chirping of the birds,1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG13YwdKgp1
I hear their every songlike word.1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGtixdKKJI
I hear the whispers of the breeze,1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARSUox51Zi
as they brush their way past me and the trees.
The sounds of the world hum gently into my unbudded ear,1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuzVXUYWqEQ
while my MP3 tries to consume all that I hear.1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqya6hPRFU
The Music playing was his favorite kind,1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA2hGlYPM3l
and although it wasn’t mine I didn’t mind.1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2BLDzGLqC
His music was quite chaotic and crazy,1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOwdCKPSEK
while I preferred sounds more quiet and lazy.
It is why I preferred the tender sounds of Nature,1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Fb1ZPb9wN
sounds that in my lonesome have come a long way from being a stranger.1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhuHv7FXD6
I like to take things nice and slow,1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJlXcPTUN6h
like how Nature takes its time to develop and grow.1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXcljNviT2z
But Music grows much too fast with no time to unwind,1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDSQpVSDDpR
and if you cannot catch up you’ll be left behind.
One would normally think that Nature and Music combined couldn’t blend.1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWyBMYECwdf
However, the two forces together managed to call the other “friend.”1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVa7MMayeEd
They grew up together from seeds to flowers,1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFy7Do5IYVj
living life blissfully in the clouds like the tops of towers.1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzVQeHOhbU
You see, Music and Nature are one and the same,1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLPBNVTh6b
but they are also as alike as a boombox to a flame.
The soft resonances of the natural world are Music to my ears.1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqe8dQmebnz
They fill with me up with so many emotions, and even my fears.1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJiFAaJb0fM
It reminds me of how scared I am to move on and let go,1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsis25W0rYE
all because Music grew up too fast and Nature too slow.1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZ0cAvFQtb
As time can often move slow I may still be the same,1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTbxrsrgtO
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.1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJlc1VrUBpS
The world he and I shared splits apart hastily by an emotional fault.1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlV5SoD5tE2
We go our separate ways without uttering a single word,1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9nddu1IhEu
and the lines between Music and Nature no longer seem so blurred.1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsbLPpEQHPf
Music and Nature can go together, but there was something driving us apart.1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLL0iuAD1Ef
He and I in some strange, natural way could not fully love the other’s heart.
“Goodbye!” I finally reached him with a cry.1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwk77uSQ6Wp
With a wretched smile he yelled back, “Goodbye!”1707Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjIHZ1oQblS
