It’s been a long day,1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVr2KBrdewf
and I’ve got little to say.1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdNpDwiouE
The pressure of everyday life is getting me down,1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRtTEJ7d4Mw
and I just need anything to break my pungent frown.1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwu29twQjqx
So, I grab my earbuds and my MP31705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42jTnve3ju
and when I sit down for peace and quiet, he sits close to me.1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCUHtBIO2m
1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡITb904qfuf
No words dared to part from our lips1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz26ce4S82f
as we avoid holding hands, yet sat tied by our hips.1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6thh8CbgGP
We listened to Music together silently,1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNuRmK5DDGo
respecting the other’s company and space leisurely.1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEHJ9eXZDZH
I used to enjoy the rampant, bustling sounds of Music,1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOztE7rM74X
an experience no more or less fascinating than magic.
I keep the volume of the Music low,1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8tGArIrjeI
so that I can hear the sounds of Nature and Music together flow.1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBlMO2xzAu
I hear the chirping of the birds,1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHRwfbc6aC
I hear their every songlike word.1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvV126fmvyC
I hear the whispers of the breeze,1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemzXgw05Vr
as they brush their way past me and the trees.
The sounds of the world hum gently into my unbudded ear,1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGCVI26Ef4
while my MP3 tries to consume all that I hear.1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipts1k2mC3
The Music playing was his favorite kind,1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡofYwhSvtIG
and although it wasn’t mine I didn’t mind.1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOvQ9lYdmY
His music was quite chaotic and crazy,1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYpkYMgws1t
while I preferred sounds more quiet and lazy.
It is why I preferred the tender sounds of Nature,1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXvVaPpIQeb
sounds that in my lonesome have come a long way from being a stranger.1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtKzVt4Qu6n
I like to take things nice and slow,1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGVTLSgm5q
like how Nature takes its time to develop and grow.1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkEc0iXVxYO
But Music grows much too fast with no time to unwind,1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalhlqAtdzV
and if you cannot catch up you’ll be left behind.
One would normally think that Nature and Music combined couldn’t blend.1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYw9qeskTBK
However, the two forces together managed to call the other “friend.”1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhetZJFZRa2
They grew up together from seeds to flowers,1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrWsvIXLPLb
living life blissfully in the clouds like the tops of towers.1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzi0MUONKa
You see, Music and Nature are one and the same,1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDxMukmBsll
but they are also as alike as a boombox to a flame.
The soft resonances of the natural world are Music to my ears.1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj59H7mflmo
They fill with me up with so many emotions, and even my fears.1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsuyIaGa2XB
It reminds me of how scared I am to move on and let go,1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4qQza2PzSl
all because Music grew up too fast and Nature too slow.1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvKpiLKwH8
As time can often move slow I may still be the same,1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ7yiieGNLi
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.1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnCiCGWtK7L
The world he and I shared splits apart hastily by an emotional fault.1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibzjV5lYkE
We go our separate ways without uttering a single word,1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hT7SoAT3C
and the lines between Music and Nature no longer seem so blurred.1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwkBNrrdph
Music and Nature can go together, but there was something driving us apart.1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1G7M2miVm0
He and I in some strange, natural way could not fully love the other’s heart.
“Goodbye!” I finally reached him with a cry.1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOq7YnufLj
With a wretched smile he yelled back, “Goodbye!”1705Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtt8jddVKCG
