Te Siento

The song 'Te Siento' by Floricienta, a project led by Argentine actress and singer Florencia Bertotti, is a poignant expression of longing and the persistent presence of a lost love. The lyrics open with the narrator waking up in tears, having dreamt of a departure that they couldn't prevent. This sets a tone of regret and sorrow that permeates the song. The dream and the waking tears symbolize the deep emotional connection that remains despite the physical absence of the loved one.

As the song progresses, the phrase 'Te siento' (I feel you) is repeated, emphasizing the inescapable sensation of the loved one's presence in every aspect of the narrator's life. The mention of 'ese beso que no fue' (that kiss that never was) suggests missed opportunities and unfulfilled desires. The 'escombros de este amor' (the rubble of this love) metaphorically represent the remnants of a relationship that has ended, yet still weighs heavily on the heart. The contrast between 'olvido' (forgetting) and 'recuerdo' (remembering) highlights the struggle between moving on and being held back by memories.

Floricienta's musical style often includes elements of pop and rock with a focus on themes of love, youth, and emotions. 'Te Siento' captures the essence of a heart that, despite trying to heal, is haunted by the presence of someone they still deeply love. The song resonates with anyone who has experienced the bittersweet nature of remembering a past love while trying to navigate the present.
