It’s been a long day,1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrOIXrBN3g
and I’ve got little to say.1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRgzloJMmVv
The pressure of everyday life is getting me down,1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡziXEP61Bws
and I just need anything to break my pungent frown.1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3FDCvO0rrA
So, I grab my earbuds and my MP31786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqzRc6QYRnO
and when I sit down for peace and quiet, he sits close to me.1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbomriCR2ZX
1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmlhOAfMq0f
No words dared to part from our lips1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ85mOyLDmnf
as we avoid holding hands, yet sat tied by our hips.1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLtlG2VcGA
We listened to Music together silently,1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEqRVJHA0Xv
respecting the other’s company and space leisurely.1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlxfBImzXyX
I used to enjoy the rampant, bustling sounds of Music,1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BBvQm8dlV
an experience no more or less fascinating than magic.
I keep the volume of the Music low,1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJsysDSwHT2
so that I can hear the sounds of Nature and Music together flow.1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj3ZkQSVtWk
I hear the chirping of the birds,1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOqmPeyhCm
I hear their every songlike word.1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKj2LLHtVi
I hear the whispers of the breeze,1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfChWwm4mJV
as they brush their way past me and the trees.
The sounds of the world hum gently into my unbudded ear,1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdxCLn75mZ
while my MP3 tries to consume all that I hear.1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcRpssBAugS
The Music playing was his favorite kind,1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlYPydcHfU
and although it wasn’t mine I didn’t mind.1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjY22QBBKG
His music was quite chaotic and crazy,1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTci39kMr62
while I preferred sounds more quiet and lazy.
It is why I preferred the tender sounds of Nature,1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJTHRFageuH
sounds that in my lonesome have come a long way from being a stranger.1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlD4exL2jet
I like to take things nice and slow,1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLiFIWkevdB
like how Nature takes its time to develop and grow.1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ316eFqS7sV
But Music grows much too fast with no time to unwind,1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22xvhEegUC
and if you cannot catch up you’ll be left behind.
One would normally think that Nature and Music combined couldn’t blend.1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpU8tJipaMQ
However, the two forces together managed to call the other “friend.”1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPsqqTbOLb0
They grew up together from seeds to flowers,1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwrS9SWyJOz
living life blissfully in the clouds like the tops of towers.1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0x2wk93YCY
You see, Music and Nature are one and the same,1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfxnmAnTZ8B
but they are also as alike as a boombox to a flame.
The soft resonances of the natural world are Music to my ears.1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3iSMuQuerR
They fill with me up with so many emotions, and even my fears.1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg1TjrpsxI3
It reminds me of how scared I am to move on and let go,1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcBaRUz5kaP
all because Music grew up too fast and Nature too slow.1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1C2Unqhltb
As time can often move slow I may still be the same,1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZSvpWoyBCn
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.1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9fVBbRGl0l
The world he and I shared splits apart hastily by an emotional fault.1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTlQds9LRS
We go our separate ways without uttering a single word,1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfPko7vcb2Q
and the lines between Music and Nature no longer seem so blurred.1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjBikXVNmN
Music and Nature can go together, but there was something driving us apart.1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgq9kTDhvcd
He and I in some strange, natural way could not fully love the other’s heart.
“Goodbye!” I finally reached him with a cry.1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOsocciUPn6
With a wretched smile he yelled back, “Goodbye!”1786Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAtbTMadNj3
