Hive Open Mic Week 269 ||”Se que suena a despedida”|| @rut.hernandez06

Hello everyone! Welcome to a new musical blog in this Week 269 of Hive Open Mic, just like every week with a new musical theme.

Today, I bring you a song I composed called Se que suena a despedida (I Know It Sounds Like a Farewell). It tells the story of someone who knows this is their last day and doesn't cling to the goodbye as something painful. Instead, they simply wish to leave in peace, embraced by those they love and longing for the embrace of those who are no longer here.

This song is one of my favorites among the ones I've written, mainly because of how deeply I feel the pain of letting go. Writing this is my way of opening my heart and learning not to hold onto painful farewells—not just in love, but also when saying goodbye to those who are no longer in this world. Letting go of them is incredibly difficult.

I hope you enjoy my song and my interpretation. Sending you all a big hug, and I hope you have a beautiful week!

Lyrics on English

I come searching for you in every gaze
So close, yet so far
I wish you were here

That moment is drawing near
We stop being eternal
So we can finally let go

But it no longer hurts
It's only a goodbye

I know this is my last day
And I know it sounds like farewell
Even though I can no longer hold you, my love

I know nothing here will be infinite
And I can only ask you to embrace me
From the heart
Because this is the end
There's no time left to wait

I wish I could find you at every corner
And hold you endlessly
So I could leave in peace

I know time is never as we want
And life never grants
Another chance

But it no longer hurts
It's only a goodbye

I know this is my last day
And I know it sounds like farewell
Even though I can no longer hold you, my love

I know nothing here will be infinite
And I can only ask you to embrace me
From the heart
Because this is the end
There's no time left to wait
