Hello, dear night owls. It is my first time posting in this beautiful community and I do it right at 12:02 in the morning on Thursday, from the capital of Guyana, Georgetown.
I hope that my entry is sweet, like jam and like the voice of the protagonist of the song that I want to share with you today.
Someone You Loved by Lewis Capaldi has the power to make my heart tighten every time I hear it. Although I had already enjoyed it on several occasions, it was at midnight on January 1, 2024, when it made me cry, curled up in my bed, like a little girl.
My husband had emigrated from Cuba to this wonderful country, and in 17 years of marriage, it was the first time that we received a new year apart. Although we had an emotional video call full of promises, when we hung up, my world collapsed. Suddenly there was too much space in the house. Avoiding being heard by my son, I put on my headphones and opened YouTube to listen to some music so I could fall asleep.
The first song to appear in the proposals was, precisely, Someone You Loved by Lewis Capaldi. And the desire to cry was then uncontrollable, because the singer transmitted a very strong sadness and nostalgia with his voice.
In addition, the lyrics of the song talk about separation, losses and how we can remain weak and fragmented in situations like this.
For now, the day bleeds into nightfall
And you鈥瞨e not here to get me through it all.
Verses as profound as these are found throughout the song, taking you to a place deep within yourself.
Luckily, my story had a happy ending and five months later, my son and I were able to reunite with my husband in other lands. But I would love to leave you the video of this song and for you to listen to it right now, at midnight, in the comfort of your room:
