It’s been a long day,1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjA8KtvO51
and I’ve got little to say.1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡecz2yCwUU2
The pressure of everyday life is getting me down,1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRvsN2lmF7k
and I just need anything to break my pungent frown.1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlyg838w6d
So, I grab my earbuds and my MP31763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdpQZ2D1fG4
and when I sit down for peace and quiet, he sits close to me.1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQaizpQyD1
1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPnFpWsMMuh
No words dared to part from our lips1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3PFP0XE6Da
as we avoid holding hands, yet sat tied by our hips.1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl40kpnrClG
We listened to Music together silently,1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckPGyYIMZZ
respecting the other’s company and space leisurely.1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUUstMVjCg
I used to enjoy the rampant, bustling sounds of Music,1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7SvsVPJPBa
an experience no more or less fascinating than magic.
I keep the volume of the Music low,1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26ebhv9ugZ
so that I can hear the sounds of Nature and Music together flow.1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdvx2T6VE2
I hear the chirping of the birds,1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZwToiqTH2
I hear their every songlike word.1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUNI8CZjT2D
I hear the whispers of the breeze,1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpzgAJdqfW1
as they brush their way past me and the trees.
The sounds of the world hum gently into my unbudded ear,1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2SlxJlfxOz
while my MP3 tries to consume all that I hear.1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMyLxpefOOT
The Music playing was his favorite kind,1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTgzNFMBK2
and although it wasn’t mine I didn’t mind.1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1nvuN3xEps
His music was quite chaotic and crazy,1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo3RzV0wdtL
while I preferred sounds more quiet and lazy.
It is why I preferred the tender sounds of Nature,1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgFVd6vHjRe
sounds that in my lonesome have come a long way from being a stranger.1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVerjDHi7K8
I like to take things nice and slow,1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvVt3Ose45V
like how Nature takes its time to develop and grow.1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEdHqKLFea3
But Music grows much too fast with no time to unwind,1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvtRj7jtK2
and if you cannot catch up you’ll be left behind.
One would normally think that Nature and Music combined couldn’t blend.1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7LzcoRURSj
However, the two forces together managed to call the other “friend.”1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJk6bJiN8jp
They grew up together from seeds to flowers,1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlffLHQ6NNw
living life blissfully in the clouds like the tops of towers.1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdd14i1Pk7Y
You see, Music and Nature are one and the same,1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TkJZqqL6t
but they are also as alike as a boombox to a flame.
The soft resonances of the natural world are Music to my ears.1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd3EtUiQXXL
They fill with me up with so many emotions, and even my fears.1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl2fDFoYMzO
It reminds me of how scared I am to move on and let go,1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDstVFZPcXb
all because Music grew up too fast and Nature too slow.1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHj6TeYeW41
As time can often move slow I may still be the same,1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCx3PhO0e6N
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.1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqwpif1pnS
The world he and I shared splits apart hastily by an emotional fault.1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vS31eAazm
We go our separate ways without uttering a single word,1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hMVhYjTJE
and the lines between Music and Nature no longer seem so blurred.1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDWESakWQs
Music and Nature can go together, but there was something driving us apart.1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoweaJrp4DY
He and I in some strange, natural way could not fully love the other’s heart.
“Goodbye!” I finally reached him with a cry.1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKmyqCG2clJ
With a wretched smile he yelled back, “Goodbye!”1763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ33dD63sO2A
