It’s been a long day,2162Please respect copyright.PENANAwSmGRmF2w6
and I’ve got little to say.2162Please respect copyright.PENANAbRv4718nFU
The pressure of everyday life is getting me down,2162Please respect copyright.PENANADLN13ms89n
and I just need anything to break my pungent frown.2162Please respect copyright.PENANAwmJSN2Lkx2
So, I grab my earbuds and my MP32162Please respect copyright.PENANAX5w9IJ9MtX
and when I sit down for peace and quiet, he sits close to me.2162Please respect copyright.PENANATgnccociV6
2162Please respect copyright.PENANAfCgbAGAMRP
No words dared to part from our lips2162Please respect copyright.PENANAaCZpmwvbwd
as we avoid holding hands, yet sat tied by our hips.2162Please respect copyright.PENANAB9zbMEf4i9
We listened to Music together silently,2162Please respect copyright.PENANAIkqc64AUXz
respecting the other’s company and space leisurely.2162Please respect copyright.PENANANRv1sax4r1
I used to enjoy the rampant, bustling sounds of Music,2162Please respect copyright.PENANAQtT3MyNAtr
an experience no more or less fascinating than magic.
I keep the volume of the Music low,2162Please respect copyright.PENANAayaiwNFTSW
so that I can hear the sounds of Nature and Music together flow.2162Please respect copyright.PENANAJLQ4uTpSTh
I hear the chirping of the birds,2162Please respect copyright.PENANAz8SYD4EfQF
I hear their every songlike word.2162Please respect copyright.PENANA6bkzwuPT99
I hear the whispers of the breeze,2162Please respect copyright.PENANAKz6aAphLrW
as they brush their way past me and the trees.
The sounds of the world hum gently into my unbudded ear,2162Please respect copyright.PENANAEdf3xMmmND
while my MP3 tries to consume all that I hear.2162Please respect copyright.PENANA5FJKAu6F4n
The Music playing was his favorite kind,2162Please respect copyright.PENANAAijkAbgn8P
and although it wasn’t mine I didn’t mind.2162Please respect copyright.PENANA6ziCVvP68k
His music was quite chaotic and crazy,2162Please respect copyright.PENANADq9ovxqM7M
while I preferred sounds more quiet and lazy.
It is why I preferred the tender sounds of Nature,2162Please respect copyright.PENANA6q9BvgtPlP
sounds that in my lonesome have come a long way from being a stranger.2162Please respect copyright.PENANAdZgXlFyLHy
I like to take things nice and slow,2162Please respect copyright.PENANAUDzTcOwtOF
like how Nature takes its time to develop and grow.2162Please respect copyright.PENANAalfHmeWLvq
But Music grows much too fast with no time to unwind,2162Please respect copyright.PENANA3ofWYgtdJs
and if you cannot catch up you’ll be left behind.
One would normally think that Nature and Music combined couldn’t blend.2162Please respect copyright.PENANAudGaxAB222
However, the two forces together managed to call the other “friend.”2162Please respect copyright.PENANAJ0QBVLpDX3
They grew up together from seeds to flowers,2162Please respect copyright.PENANAQFOCwfy8nw
living life blissfully in the clouds like the tops of towers.2162Please respect copyright.PENANAsuUTqflBEV
You see, Music and Nature are one and the same,2162Please respect copyright.PENANA4Mhm7yALMw
but they are also as alike as a boombox to a flame.
The soft resonances of the natural world are Music to my ears.2162Please respect copyright.PENANAA2xDfEKVsa
They fill with me up with so many emotions, and even my fears.2162Please respect copyright.PENANAjkEeUanB29
It reminds me of how scared I am to move on and let go,2162Please respect copyright.PENANAPJMTpLgj3Y
all because Music grew up too fast and Nature too slow.2162Please respect copyright.PENANA0rPVefOazh
As time can often move slow I may still be the same,2162Please respect copyright.PENANAoafGDKVvAS
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.2162Please respect copyright.PENANAx6VyIdj10m
The world he and I shared splits apart hastily by an emotional fault.2162Please respect copyright.PENANAjGv3U8A9pW
We go our separate ways without uttering a single word,2162Please respect copyright.PENANAin2NwqtAgn
and the lines between Music and Nature no longer seem so blurred.2162Please respect copyright.PENANAefXNzha4jF
Music and Nature can go together, but there was something driving us apart.2162Please respect copyright.PENANArEEXkqxXLM
He and I in some strange, natural way could not fully love the other’s heart.
“Goodbye!” I finally reached him with a cry.2162Please respect copyright.PENANAtdmvBWjXC6
With a wretched smile he yelled back, “Goodbye!”2162Please respect copyright.PENANAKsXZEKSYpd
