▶️ Watch on 3Speak

Hello, fellow hivers.

This is Hive Open Mic week 200🎤, and the theme for this week—VIRTUAL SERENADE—has been chosen by the efficient @jesuslnrs. Also, a big thanks to @fernanblog for his direction and guidance regarding this particular contest. A huge shout-out and bold “well done” to all the moderators of this wonderful community that has stood the test of time.

For this week's entry, the piece I have decided to present is inspired by a poem I recently came across on the 'Blockchain Poets' community. The poem was written by user @olugashalom .
I found the poem to be quite precise and relatable.
Here is my favorite section from the poem.
“Heart pumping hard like it's about
To Burst”
“From the pains of
Your Broken Trust.”

Here is a link to the full poem.

At one point or the other, I think a good amount of us must have had our trust broken by platonic friends and colleagues, and even more painfully, our intimate partners. This pain usually cuts deep and can take a while to heal. One of the songs I've been repeating recently came to my remembrance after reading the poem.
The song is ALL WE EVER DO IS SAY GOODBYE by one of my favorite musical artists, John Mayer.

In this song, John is essentially talking to a past lover who is asking for him back, and telling her that why should he come back just to have his heart broken again because all they ever do is say goodbye.

There is a guitar solo on the original song which I have omitted here because my tools are limited. Lol.

Here are the lyrics of this wonderful song.
Just when I had you off my head
Your voice comes thrashing wildly through my quiet bed
You say you wanna try again
But I've tried everything but giving in
Why you wanna break my heart again
Why am I gonna let you try
When all we ever do is say goodbye
Oh, all we ever do is say goodbye
All we ever do is say goodbye
Oh, all we ever do is say goodbye
I bought a ticket on a plane
And by the time it landed you were gone again
I love you more than songs can say
But I can't keep running after yesterday
So, why you wanna break my heart again
Why am I gonna let you try
When all we ever do is say goodbye
Oh, all we ever do is say goodbye
All we ever do is say goodbye
Oh, all we ever do is say goodbye
We say goodbye
We say goodbye
We say goodbye
All we ever do is say goodbye
(Oh, all we ever do is say goodbye) And all we ever do is say goodbye
(All we ever do is say goodbye) All we ever do is say goodbye
(Oh, all we ever do is say goodbye) All we ever do is say goodbye
