Dejé de Amar

Felipe Muniz's song 'Dejé de Amar' delves into the profound sadness and emptiness that follows the end of a deep, romantic love. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a man who once lived a life full of passion and poetic expression, but now finds himself emotionally barren and disconnected. The opening lines reveal a shift in the protagonist's thoughts, indicating that he no longer thinks about his past love as he once did. This change is attributed to the myriad of distractions and responsibilities that life has thrown his way, forcing him to forget the woman he once adored.

As the song progresses, the protagonist encounters memories of his past love, which reignite feelings of longing and nostalgia. He realizes that the woman he once loved has changed, and so has he. This realization brings a wave of sadness as he acknowledges that he is now a solitary man, living without the joy and fulfillment that love once brought him. The lyrics poignantly express his inability to find pleasure in physical affection, highlighting the depth of his emotional numbness.

The chorus emphasizes the transformation the protagonist has undergone. He is no longer the 'poet in love' who filled his life with poetry and kisses. The romantic sincerity that once defined him has faded, leaving behind a man who merely exists without purpose or passion. The repetition of the phrase 'dijo mujer te quiero' (he said woman, I love you) underscores the sincerity and intensity of his past love, contrasting sharply with his current state of emotional desolation. 'Dejé de Amar' is a haunting reflection on the impact of lost love and the profound changes it can bring to one's life and identity.
