Si Me Quisieras

Roel's song 'Si Me Quisieras' delves deep into the emotional turmoil of unrequited love. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a heart caught in a cycle of hope and despair, yearning for reciprocation. The protagonist is stuck in a limbo, unsure if their beloved is coming or going, which leaves them emotionally exhausted. The repeated phrases 'dices si y dices no' and 'dame tiempo' highlight the inconsistency and indecisiveness of the beloved, further intensifying the protagonist's anguish.

The chorus, 'Si me quisieras, yo sería más,' encapsulates the core sentiment of the song. The protagonist believes that being loved would transform them, making them feel whole and alive. This longing for validation and completeness through love is a powerful theme that resonates with anyone who has experienced unrequited affection. The metaphor of 'este cielo en un infierno' poignantly describes the paradox of being close to the beloved yet feeling distant, turning what should be a heavenly experience into a personal hell.

Roel's lyrical expression also touches on the futility of waiting for love that may never come. The line 'En este amor uno más uno nunca sumas dos' underscores the imbalance in the relationship, where the protagonist's efforts and emotions are not equally matched by the beloved. Despite this, there is a glimmer of hope and resilience in the lines 'Quiero amanecer por ti' and 'Puedo respirar por ti,' suggesting a willingness to continue loving and hoping, even in the face of uncertainty. This blend of despair and hope makes 'Si Me Quisieras' a poignant exploration of the complexities of unrequited love.
