It’s been a long day,1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM6gEPKxssi
and I’ve got little to say.1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpeka3MALUY
The pressure of everyday life is getting me down,1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRMlPjX0EJw
and I just need anything to break my pungent frown.1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeAlevp2xRp
So, I grab my earbuds and my MP31716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKUWtQoas6q
and when I sit down for peace and quiet, he sits close to me.1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAND6OgjKx3
1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsi9D1PaJhO
No words dared to part from our lips1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ42rrgDUdM
as we avoid holding hands, yet sat tied by our hips.1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9rRw24UDe
We listened to Music together silently,1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1t6YUpVIQ
respecting the other’s company and space leisurely.1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtWUAmL77I
I used to enjoy the rampant, bustling sounds of Music,1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7DMq3kxoX
an experience no more or less fascinating than magic.
I keep the volume of the Music low,1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfOixHglUt
so that I can hear the sounds of Nature and Music together flow.1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8z5DMvlVNR
I hear the chirping of the birds,1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5Cs3ouuMq
I hear their every songlike word.1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5zNN9mNKo
I hear the whispers of the breeze,1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIMZORvCU0q
as they brush their way past me and the trees.
The sounds of the world hum gently into my unbudded ear,1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgUjGsEdq74
while my MP3 tries to consume all that I hear.1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSoKypxsD9I
The Music playing was his favorite kind,1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkNCdZoLq6I
and although it wasn’t mine I didn’t mind.1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY06ofyMOCh
His music was quite chaotic and crazy,1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ52X10jYzi
while I preferred sounds more quiet and lazy.
It is why I preferred the tender sounds of Nature,1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8J8b2i9i2
sounds that in my lonesome have come a long way from being a stranger.1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYmHwf2il4
I like to take things nice and slow,1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs0C9leInAR
like how Nature takes its time to develop and grow.1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlYAS6RYDv
But Music grows much too fast with no time to unwind,1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHI3rjxp8vX
and if you cannot catch up you’ll be left behind.
One would normally think that Nature and Music combined couldn’t blend.1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxfBljLEUJV
However, the two forces together managed to call the other “friend.”1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3tUMGz12Nt
They grew up together from seeds to flowers,1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4NPtKJBZcO
living life blissfully in the clouds like the tops of towers.1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74M6tL1yns
You see, Music and Nature are one and the same,1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXtu09VZWB
but they are also as alike as a boombox to a flame.
The soft resonances of the natural world are Music to my ears.1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ399RUqCVIT
They fill with me up with so many emotions, and even my fears.1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWrXutKm4yj
It reminds me of how scared I am to move on and let go,1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd27yT4Ci6g
all because Music grew up too fast and Nature too slow.1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDnCJBEAEq
As time can often move slow I may still be the same,1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0NoBEuj5Ys
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.1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ79WYZSjlI0
The world he and I shared splits apart hastily by an emotional fault.1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpUAotdHDf4
We go our separate ways without uttering a single word,1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ09fuBPKxOz
and the lines between Music and Nature no longer seem so blurred.1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGqFx4slIB7
Music and Nature can go together, but there was something driving us apart.1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCd9eTfUTj7
He and I in some strange, natural way could not fully love the other’s heart.
“Goodbye!” I finally reached him with a cry.1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEChmuSC3si
With a wretched smile he yelled back, “Goodbye!”1716Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡulmGQQY09j
