Que Hiciste

Jennifer Lopez's song 'Que Hiciste' (translated to 'What Did You Do') is a poignant narrative of love turned sour, a tale of betrayal and the end of a once beautiful relationship. The song begins with a reflection on the past, a time when the couple shared dreams of a perfect world and promises of eternal love. The lyrics poignantly recall a time when words were unnecessary because their souls communicated through their eyes, and the truth was clear in their gaze.

As the song progresses, the tone shifts from nostalgic reminiscence to confronting the present betrayal. The repeated question 'Que hiciste?' serves as an accusation, questioning how the partner could destroy the hope and love they once shared. The singer expresses the pain of having their shared dreams and nights together erased by the partner's harsh words and actions. The betrayal is felt deeply, as the love given is equated with permission to break her soul. The destruction of their love is likened to the demolition of a home, a powerful metaphor for the life and future they built together.

The song concludes with a resolve to move on, as the singer vows to forget the past and the pain caused by her former lover. There is a sense of finality and empowerment in deciding to leave behind the memories and the heartache. The lyrics suggest a future where the singer no longer acknowledges the partner's existence or regrets, symbolizing a new beginning free from the shadows of the past relationship. 'Que Hiciste' is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit in the face of heartbreak and the journey from vulnerability to strength.
