De a Poquito

Camilú's song 'De a Poquito' is a heartfelt exploration of vulnerability and the cautious approach to love after experiencing emotional pain. The lyrics reveal a protagonist who has been deeply hurt in the past, making it difficult for them to trust and open up to new love. The opening lines, 'Sobre la cosas que dije / No me hagas caso / Hablo desde cicatrices / Que me han dejado,' set the tone for the song, indicating that the speaker's past wounds still influence their present emotions and actions.

The chorus, 'Si tú me quieres que sea de a poquito / Que ya me acostumbre a que no me quieran,' underscores the protagonist's plea for a slow and gentle approach to love. They express a need to be loved gradually, as they have become accustomed to not being loved fully or loudly. This cautious request highlights the fear of getting hurt again and the desire to protect their fragile heart. The repetition of this plea throughout the song emphasizes the importance of taking things slowly and the deep-seated fear of emotional pain.

Camilú also touches on the bittersweet nature of new love, as seen in the lines, 'Se siente bonito mi niño besar / Tus labios rosados / Pero es imposible dejar de pensar / En que quizás me largo.' The protagonist finds joy in the new relationship but is haunted by the possibility of it ending. The references to past experiences, such as the way the new lover prepares coffee or says 'bebé,' evoke memories of a previous relationship, adding layers of complexity to their current emotions. The song beautifully captures the delicate balance between hope and fear, love and pain, and the slow journey towards healing and trust.
