It’s been a long day,1827Please respect copyright.PENANA4DmTW40hoM
and I’ve got little to say.1827Please respect copyright.PENANA22xtcBtvTv
The pressure of everyday life is getting me down,1827Please respect copyright.PENANA8ekKI6vcee
and I just need anything to break my pungent frown.1827Please respect copyright.PENANAwxxxeKzoXp
So, I grab my earbuds and my MP31827Please respect copyright.PENANA4bLpQt7BBf
and when I sit down for peace and quiet, he sits close to me.1827Please respect copyright.PENANAgLG5OvCUhd
1827Please respect copyright.PENANACzXOKMcNKK
No words dared to part from our lips1827Please respect copyright.PENANAREdUnFS6pk
as we avoid holding hands, yet sat tied by our hips.1827Please respect copyright.PENANA8ZrXBEmcHP
We listened to Music together silently,1827Please respect copyright.PENANAkxi7ddJx8F
respecting the other’s company and space leisurely.1827Please respect copyright.PENANAGUHKGAlovb
I used to enjoy the rampant, bustling sounds of Music,1827Please respect copyright.PENANAjJ3wDcqsv0
an experience no more or less fascinating than magic.
I keep the volume of the Music low,1827Please respect copyright.PENANAOUYyWsxGKS
so that I can hear the sounds of Nature and Music together flow.1827Please respect copyright.PENANACxAp4xBTkd
I hear the chirping of the birds,1827Please respect copyright.PENANA39mKeRiHzU
I hear their every songlike word.1827Please respect copyright.PENANAyp7C8PYSGf
I hear the whispers of the breeze,1827Please respect copyright.PENANAoEoad98VSG
as they brush their way past me and the trees.
The sounds of the world hum gently into my unbudded ear,1827Please respect copyright.PENANAqqSWByRGQj
while my MP3 tries to consume all that I hear.1827Please respect copyright.PENANAbLoKqQk4BH
The Music playing was his favorite kind,1827Please respect copyright.PENANAY3I7ZKAan2
and although it wasn’t mine I didn’t mind.1827Please respect copyright.PENANAJ6sOQRXzM6
His music was quite chaotic and crazy,1827Please respect copyright.PENANALxP6yeNY0C
while I preferred sounds more quiet and lazy.
It is why I preferred the tender sounds of Nature,1827Please respect copyright.PENANADRMV21qj6J
sounds that in my lonesome have come a long way from being a stranger.1827Please respect copyright.PENANAzMzASNlNba
I like to take things nice and slow,1827Please respect copyright.PENANAm3xgSd3T4F
like how Nature takes its time to develop and grow.1827Please respect copyright.PENANAllPncY5al4
But Music grows much too fast with no time to unwind,1827Please respect copyright.PENANAKmJFjDYJUm
and if you cannot catch up you’ll be left behind.
One would normally think that Nature and Music combined couldn’t blend.1827Please respect copyright.PENANAYgDWxmQIKp
However, the two forces together managed to call the other “friend.”1827Please respect copyright.PENANAzMKWSPIQ0Z
They grew up together from seeds to flowers,1827Please respect copyright.PENANASJ5JhtyjWp
living life blissfully in the clouds like the tops of towers.1827Please respect copyright.PENANARh1LveVsBL
You see, Music and Nature are one and the same,1827Please respect copyright.PENANAtcmSPNTLth
but they are also as alike as a boombox to a flame.
The soft resonances of the natural world are Music to my ears.1827Please respect copyright.PENANAs4pJ9Ea2oV
They fill with me up with so many emotions, and even my fears.1827Please respect copyright.PENANA0SFliZ3bo0
It reminds me of how scared I am to move on and let go,1827Please respect copyright.PENANARvfulyJV07
all because Music grew up too fast and Nature too slow.1827Please respect copyright.PENANAowBEhqaElM
As time can often move slow I may still be the same,1827Please respect copyright.PENANAb8PdV5gF98
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.1827Please respect copyright.PENANAO3bZ5hCS0T
The world he and I shared splits apart hastily by an emotional fault.1827Please respect copyright.PENANAdr0bPx38Xr
We go our separate ways without uttering a single word,1827Please respect copyright.PENANAcAM2PpEdB2
and the lines between Music and Nature no longer seem so blurred.1827Please respect copyright.PENANA65nfAQuoot
Music and Nature can go together, but there was something driving us apart.1827Please respect copyright.PENANAOe8HUBDOUh
He and I in some strange, natural way could not fully love the other’s heart.
“Goodbye!” I finally reached him with a cry.1827Please respect copyright.PENANAuBbne3Wn6Y
With a wretched smile he yelled back, “Goodbye!”1827Please respect copyright.PENANAorLRo9vjPe
