It’s been a long day,1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUIHBc5JfhD
and I’ve got little to say.1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe7iqPhgu02
The pressure of everyday life is getting me down,1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Xrlygf8Go
and I just need anything to break my pungent frown.1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSkb8hyPOPo
So, I grab my earbuds and my MP31848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8uS7QUMXF9
and when I sit down for peace and quiet, he sits close to me.1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLBnCWqnSPe
1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbDFXIHV7g
No words dared to part from our lips1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡapeMSTaMNs
as we avoid holding hands, yet sat tied by our hips.1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfFHuSlCn4C
We listened to Music together silently,1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡinkIPj6SJK
respecting the other’s company and space leisurely.1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01xso0qhJH
I used to enjoy the rampant, bustling sounds of Music,1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMI1N5yZilW
an experience no more or less fascinating than magic.
I keep the volume of the Music low,1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2TjNhE5fVX
so that I can hear the sounds of Nature and Music together flow.1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwKFrRiYREe
I hear the chirping of the birds,1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDAnjyFvj5g
I hear their every songlike word.1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ32zJIOivaT
I hear the whispers of the breeze,1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvac66CfOQc
as they brush their way past me and the trees.
The sounds of the world hum gently into my unbudded ear,1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfTsnmWEik0
while my MP3 tries to consume all that I hear.1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpCndyuSKq
The Music playing was his favorite kind,1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8DibAsqwE
and although it wasn’t mine I didn’t mind.1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNHktKzkVw2
His music was quite chaotic and crazy,1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTi9qsVP1B
while I preferred sounds more quiet and lazy.
It is why I preferred the tender sounds of Nature,1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbxnyXZZDlV
sounds that in my lonesome have come a long way from being a stranger.1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7BeTJB3Awv
I like to take things nice and slow,1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2YR9gQApZZ
like how Nature takes its time to develop and grow.1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlvg2BUA0eJ
But Music grows much too fast with no time to unwind,1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4j0yNBcOF
and if you cannot catch up you’ll be left behind.
One would normally think that Nature and Music combined couldn’t blend.1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRcwO18TRuK
However, the two forces together managed to call the other “friend.”1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGl6kT2Z7Gw
They grew up together from seeds to flowers,1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCBGZbzYKqN
living life blissfully in the clouds like the tops of towers.1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOleGPa4YTO
You see, Music and Nature are one and the same,1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegkvhf6Y8D
but they are also as alike as a boombox to a flame.
The soft resonances of the natural world are Music to my ears.1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8cHd5o9hw9
They fill with me up with so many emotions, and even my fears.1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmw2vodFdnE
It reminds me of how scared I am to move on and let go,1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbp5CM1Zp3W
all because Music grew up too fast and Nature too slow.1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRflphrvIL
As time can often move slow I may still be the same,1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6L2yxjAp0h
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.1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJeWhrwxnH
The world he and I shared splits apart hastily by an emotional fault.1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Jy7WzvKQj
We go our separate ways without uttering a single word,1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1KDkOBJsAl
and the lines between Music and Nature no longer seem so blurred.1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ08qhLg1Wr
Music and Nature can go together, but there was something driving us apart.1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrgVCHcYlLl
He and I in some strange, natural way could not fully love the other’s heart.
“Goodbye!” I finally reached him with a cry.1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW6bsaoFiBn
With a wretched smile he yelled back, “Goodbye!”1848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZpszXvY0Ss
