Pena

In 'Pena,' Milly Quezada delves into the profound sorrow and frustration that comes with unrequited love. The word 'pena' itself translates to 'sorrow' or 'pain,' setting the tone for the entire song. The lyrics express the deep emotional turmoil the singer feels because her love is not reciprocated or understood by her partner. This unfulfilled love causes her to lose her composure and peace of mind, highlighting the emotional toll of loving someone who does not appreciate or return that love.

The song continues with the singer addressing her partner directly, expressing her exhaustion and frustration. She has tried to make her partner happy, taking them everywhere and giving them everything, yet nothing seems to satisfy them. This part of the song underscores the futility and weariness that often accompany one-sided relationships. The plea for her partner to 'mátame' (kill me) if they are still not satisfied is a dramatic expression of her desperation and the extent of her emotional suffering.

In the final lines, the singer wishes for her partner to find love and affection elsewhere, something she feels she might not have been able to provide. This wish is both selfless and poignant, as it shows her ultimate desire for her partner's happiness, even if it means they must part ways. Milly Quezada's 'Pena' is a heartfelt exploration of the pain of unreciprocated love, the exhaustion of trying to please someone who cannot be pleased, and the bittersweet hope for their future happiness.
