It’s been a long day,1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0g4dsGXDb
and I’ve got little to say.1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhRjfpl3fQR
The pressure of everyday life is getting me down,1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWA2sM3RaYh
and I just need anything to break my pungent frown.1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DHF630NzE
So, I grab my earbuds and my MP31719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhmeLmmSsSV
and when I sit down for peace and quiet, he sits close to me.1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLEEy8Qdz4
1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfwjnw5SZtF
No words dared to part from our lips1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ40dlNgmp0d
as we avoid holding hands, yet sat tied by our hips.1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrnG1O9UbjE
We listened to Music together silently,1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo28k7gu2xB
respecting the other’s company and space leisurely.1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaRPucccos1
I used to enjoy the rampant, bustling sounds of Music,1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ZcMCyfi1G
an experience no more or less fascinating than magic.
I keep the volume of the Music low,1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSzqt76cJqo
so that I can hear the sounds of Nature and Music together flow.1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVqH3vxCkj
I hear the chirping of the birds,1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLF458fhDk7
I hear their every songlike word.1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO9JhJ5EWqL
I hear the whispers of the breeze,1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKnccuyF7BI
as they brush their way past me and the trees.
The sounds of the world hum gently into my unbudded ear,1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxLH8wVOVzs
while my MP3 tries to consume all that I hear.1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMXchKtJQkn
The Music playing was his favorite kind,1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOptrxHQfYx
and although it wasn’t mine I didn’t mind.1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ58JGo6qcf0
His music was quite chaotic and crazy,1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7msrYRqANC
while I preferred sounds more quiet and lazy.
It is why I preferred the tender sounds of Nature,1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNzJVQvzTRs
sounds that in my lonesome have come a long way from being a stranger.1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcORmXenHvc
I like to take things nice and slow,1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVd1pQzoFtO
like how Nature takes its time to develop and grow.1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7eV25KybbH
But Music grows much too fast with no time to unwind,1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7T5xqFgqKa
and if you cannot catch up you’ll be left behind.
One would normally think that Nature and Music combined couldn’t blend.1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5IxxtWhdd
However, the two forces together managed to call the other “friend.”1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkncR8iKmVS
They grew up together from seeds to flowers,1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrTmed2279k
living life blissfully in the clouds like the tops of towers.1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1W50dpi5u
You see, Music and Nature are one and the same,1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOB4A0cuVE
but they are also as alike as a boombox to a flame.
The soft resonances of the natural world are Music to my ears.1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs8wagut41J
They fill with me up with so many emotions, and even my fears.1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡejm1mwaRco
It reminds me of how scared I am to move on and let go,1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcaduOXIrC4
all because Music grew up too fast and Nature too slow.1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPAcbhiF34C
As time can often move slow I may still be the same,1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkXmXGMaVxr
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.1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUh1qAxnPmD
The world he and I shared splits apart hastily by an emotional fault.1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcl4XDqkeE1
We go our separate ways without uttering a single word,1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6NzZgL95vN
and the lines between Music and Nature no longer seem so blurred.1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DT6u0QR69
Music and Nature can go together, but there was something driving us apart.1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVR537g1KK
He and I in some strange, natural way could not fully love the other’s heart.
“Goodbye!” I finally reached him with a cry.1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjhfWlNEnw
With a wretched smile he yelled back, “Goodbye!”1719Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRrmG96sOn
