Ya No Siento

Rosana Arbelo's song 'Ya No Siento' is a poignant exploration of the aftermath of a broken relationship. The lyrics convey a sense of emotional detachment and resignation, as the narrator no longer feels the desire to chase after their former lover or disrupt their life. The imagery of 'disfiguring' her gaze in the lover's eyes and the magic disappearing suggests a profound disillusionment and the end of any remaining affection. The repeated phrase 'trozos de ti' (pieces of you) symbolizes the fragmented memories and emotions that linger, even as the narrator tries to move on.

The song's chorus, with its vivid metaphors of a hurricane and the sea, underscores the tumultuous nature of the breakup. The narrator describes herself as a hurricane, destroying the remnants of the relationship, while the sea represents the overwhelming emotions that wash over her. The plea for the sea to strike the lover's soul and splash them with memories of her departure highlights the lingering impact of the relationship, even as she tries to sever ties. The repetition of 'trozos de ti' and 'trozos de ayer' (pieces of yesterday) emphasizes the struggle to let go of the past and the pain of abandonment.

Rosana's evocative lyrics also touch on themes of deception and unfulfilled promises. The mention of lies interwoven with lifeless words of love reflects the betrayal and disillusionment felt by the narrator. The song's closing lines, where the narrator asks to be remembered and then forgotten, encapsulate the bittersweet nature of moving on. The imagery of drawing and dreaming of each other, only to be left with fragments of yesterday, captures the lingering sorrow and the hope for eventual healing. 'Ya No Siento' is a powerful testament to the complexities of love and loss, beautifully rendered through Rosana's heartfelt lyrics and emotive delivery.
