Quisiera

Diego Torres' song 'Quisiera' is a heartfelt expression of longing and unfulfilled love. The lyrics convey a deep emotional connection and a desire to be an integral part of the beloved's life. Torres uses vivid imagery and metaphors to illustrate his feelings, such as elevating without the help of air or wind and touching the stars while his tears fall over time. This poetic language emphasizes the intensity of his emotions and the pain of not being able to fully express them when he looks at the person he loves but cannot find them.

The chorus of the song reveals Torres' wishes to be omnipresent in the life of his beloved. He wants to be the angel in their dreams, the voice that keeps their secrets, the light that guides their path, and even their seventh sense. These desires highlight his yearning to be close and essential to the person he loves, to the point of wanting to be a part of their very being. The repetition of 'quisiera ser' (I wish to be) underscores the depth of his longing and the various ways he wishes to manifest his love.

In the verses, Torres reflects on life as a journey filled with both good and bad experiences. He acknowledges that life is an art, and every moment, whether a win or a loss, is part of the game. This perspective shows his acceptance of life's ups and downs and his resilience in the face of challenges. Despite the pain of separation, he continues to think of his beloved, comparing their freedom to a soul over the sea. The song concludes with a poignant admission that without the beloved, he feels lost, yet he will continue to live and think of them, illustrating the enduring nature of his love and devotion.
