The Silent Longing of Unrequited Love

The song "Deseos De Cosas Imposibles" by Abel Pintos is a poignant exploration of unrequited love and the internal conflict it brings. The lyrics paint a picture of someone who is irresistibly drawn to a person or a love that is ultimately harmful or unattainable, much like a 'mosquito following a light to its demise.' This metaphor highlights the sometimes self-destructive nature of desire and the irrational pull of the heart over the mind.

The narrator speaks of silence as a refuge, a way to hide the pain and the internal struggle between reason and emotion. The act of staying silent is portrayed as a defense mechanism to avoid facing the harsh truth of unreciprocated feelings. The song delves into the theme of resignation, as the narrator promises to call the first person who doesn't hurt them 'my love,' suggesting a weary acceptance of settling for less than what the heart truly wants. The imagery of lighting a candle in secret 'just in case' speaks to the faint hope that lingers for a love that may never be returned.

Abel Pintos' song is a melancholic ballad that resonates with anyone who has experienced the bittersweet yearning for something they cannot have. The lyrics are a testament to the silent suffering that often accompanies love, especially when it is one-sided. The song's title itself, which translates to 'Desires for Impossible Things,' encapsulates the essence of longing for the unattainable and the quiet despair that ensues when we try to suppress our deepest desires.
