It’s been a long day,1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhYBMMQHW3c
and I’ve got little to say.1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV1HjTEfXz9
The pressure of everyday life is getting me down,1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkGVSAT7zQ7
and I just need anything to break my pungent frown.1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡswYGza73wF
So, I grab my earbuds and my MP31933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ODBxd9L0q
and when I sit down for peace and quiet, he sits close to me.1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwzjD0V3F4d
1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxH8TiaGkky
No words dared to part from our lips1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn75AE4VYch
as we avoid holding hands, yet sat tied by our hips.1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgCQQrI04AC
We listened to Music together silently,1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD674fMgzRU
respecting the other’s company and space leisurely.1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkM17NURkU
I used to enjoy the rampant, bustling sounds of Music,1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuumxj9Ro8k
an experience no more or less fascinating than magic.
I keep the volume of the Music low,1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6jMzamDc2V
so that I can hear the sounds of Nature and Music together flow.1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv16sFFIeOr
I hear the chirping of the birds,1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9fIv0I0wst
I hear their every songlike word.1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDOONzxVmg
I hear the whispers of the breeze,1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqyF7D8iMI6
as they brush their way past me and the trees.
The sounds of the world hum gently into my unbudded ear,1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC2oktS8qLx
while my MP3 tries to consume all that I hear.1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9JLyN0FqX0
The Music playing was his favorite kind,1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHCYzUoCAjg
and although it wasn’t mine I didn’t mind.1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVesjf406T
His music was quite chaotic and crazy,1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4sKeowG3tJ
while I preferred sounds more quiet and lazy.
It is why I preferred the tender sounds of Nature,1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZbo29HYgSD
sounds that in my lonesome have come a long way from being a stranger.1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJvDZnBrNQ9
I like to take things nice and slow,1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqtUtTCHWgz
like how Nature takes its time to develop and grow.1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5w4DIVoKw
But Music grows much too fast with no time to unwind,1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYOBdUsINU
and if you cannot catch up you’ll be left behind.
One would normally think that Nature and Music combined couldn’t blend.1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWftjaZW3h9
However, the two forces together managed to call the other “friend.”1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO6wYJUw6oX
They grew up together from seeds to flowers,1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsbQaUzYKEm
living life blissfully in the clouds like the tops of towers.1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLDQDLUlIEA
You see, Music and Nature are one and the same,1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyrr6QuflIS
but they are also as alike as a boombox to a flame.
The soft resonances of the natural world are Music to my ears.1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7MHOSYvn0H
They fill with me up with so many emotions, and even my fears.1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWT5hx7Qjtf
It reminds me of how scared I am to move on and let go,1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGW9TvSozwX
all because Music grew up too fast and Nature too slow.1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZnkTWh89B
As time can often move slow I may still be the same,1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXSML5X1NZq
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.1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxeRBBdFsM
The world he and I shared splits apart hastily by an emotional fault.1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr74ui2BrIW
We go our separate ways without uttering a single word,1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxOmWK45v1
and the lines between Music and Nature no longer seem so blurred.1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjDSN7THgQ
Music and Nature can go together, but there was something driving us apart.1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WorR9szls
He and I in some strange, natural way could not fully love the other’s heart.
“Goodbye!” I finally reached him with a cry.1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn8KT38DGqk
With a wretched smile he yelled back, “Goodbye!”1933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEk96nEhXIv
