Unrequited love is the cruelest of jokes that a person can experience. Hearing the words "I don't love you," feels like the world you thought you knew was a lie. The ground seems to give in beneath your feet, your mind is awash with irrational and emotional thoughts, and the hurt you feel lingers in your heart for days, weeks, months and years. Your future plans are no longer possible with the person you love. The only cure is self-love.
And you wonder how is it possible to love someone who doesn't love you? To be in a one-sided love. Was it real? Or were you in love with being in love with someone that you choose to ignore the reality of the situation?
ShakiraSaid she's trying so hard but why doesn't she be that popular or at least B-LIST celebrity in USA like usher and others ... maybe she has to change the concept to a rock one
Sometimes you find yourself trying to let go of something But it's like, you have been swimming on the ocean for a very very long time And you feel like you belong there You are one with the waves The warmth of the water And your body moves in sync with the ocean And you swim around just trying to stay afloat Then you get tired and you start to drown And you swim back to land When you get there you just feel so heavy because you lost touch with gravity for so long And you collapse on the beach as you try to find balance again And then your feet finds gravity You stand up and you look at the horizon one last time And you just know that no matter how beautiful the sea was And how good it made you feel It was never yours to keep And somedays you'll miss it, you know And you feel yourself moving with the waves and you dream of diving in Then you realize your feet was meant for land And not cut out for the ocean Maybe you're meant to climb trees, or hike hills, or just run really fast Letting go is not easy There's nothing quite like swimming in the ocean Just like how it's natural for your feet to find gravity It's natural for you to let go And find your true purpose in life again The sea is the sea And you are just you I have to let go But sometimes I find myself waking up at the beach again *** You're welcome
Yuna expresses in her songs all the feelings and all the hurting I am not able to phrase or express myself. She captures feelings so beautifully in her words and music that I feel like my soul speaks to me when I listen to her songs. She is incredibly talented.
today was the first time ;listening to the poem and understanding it. when you get the opportunity to realize this person is way a wetland that isn't as boundless as you thought it's easier to let go
This could be related to the relationship between mankind and nature. But it's beyond that. It's deeper. It's about how you are so stubborn to reach something or someone, not giving up because you feel it is for you, that you belong there. And then, in a moment, you realize that eventually you need to step aside of it (the ocean) and make your first step on the ground (the land). Because maybe you are not meant to be swimming in the ocean, and the land could bring you different feelings. It could be your way to reach hapiness.. wow... I loved Yuna since long time ago, but she is creating pure art 💗
The actual song hadn't even started and I was already in tears. Her words hit home so hard, and the memories I had of the person I fell in love with played through my mind as the video went on. Just reminded me of how little time I have left to spend with them, how eventually I will have to face the fact that they don't feel the same and I'll have to let go.
YESSSSSSS I loved (love*) this guy for 6 years. and he's never thought of me the same way. he's always loved other girls. now he's at university and he's a mess. and i'm always thinking about him. it's kinda ridiculous but yeah. and when the poem is talking about the ocean, yeah, I see his smile and like- flashes of memories :') I know that sounds cheesy. unrequited love is truly the worst.
I find this on RU-vid specifically to hear the poem. “Then you get tired and you start to drown, and you swim back to land. When you get there you feel so heavy because you lost touch with gravity for so long”
i always skip the intro part, and now 4 years later i come back here again. I listen to the poem for the first time. and finally i can understand whats the meaning of it due to my own experiences. Its so sad, sorrow, painful to read.
Only when I look into your eyes My senses ignite I feel alive I was waiting for an answer Like a feather falling From the sky You don't want to belong to me 'Cause freedom feels better Then I could give You love inadequately But you steal hearts like mine Perfectly Why you gotta be- Why you gotta be my unrequited love, unrequited love Why can't our love be- Why can't our love be possible? For as long as I can remember Like oil and water We collide But you don't seem to want forever This adventure Was only real to my eyes You don't want to listen to me 'Cause freedom sounds better And I can see you love inadequately But you steal hearts like mine Perfectly Why you gotta be- Why you gotta be my unrequited love, unrequited love Why can't our love be- Why can't our love be possible? You're a man with excuses 'Cause we've had something real But it was only what I feel alone Oh, you're a man with your muses Always wanting something new And I was just someone that you could use Why you gotta be- Why you gotta be my unrequited love, unrequited love Why can't our love be- Why can't our love be possible?
One sided love Or unrequited love is like living in beautiful illusion and when you finally understand that it is an illusion.. You are already too deep, you already gave your one part to the person... You already invested your emotions and now it's so hard to move on because that beautiful illusion keeps trying to consume you again..
I remember listening to this song 2017, balling my eyes out cause my fwb didn’t want a relationship cause of the trauma his ex put him through😂oh well he’s hubby now and this song just takes me back to that time i felt so hopeless not knowing soon he was gonna come and tell me he wants to give us a shot

I never ever comment on things, but omg the intro is so amazing. Especially having gone through that situation with someone. I just couldn't and didn't want to let go of him. I'd always say I'm gonna let him go because I KNEW he didnt feel the same as me and get sucked back in, just wanting more. Unrequited love is so painful!!
I swear this song kills me everytime I listen to it. One of the worst pain is a broken heart. It kills you slowly,you feel it in your body în your mind, it takes over you,you find yourself waking up at night with tears în your eyes and a pain in your chest. It's not fair for someone to make you open up to them to show them parts of you no one else saw and after that they just become strangers that know all your secrets.
I love when singers sing from the heart and not their head. Yuna, keep singing from your heart and I won’t let go. Freedom is hearing you sing! Much love from California!
This song is describing exactly what I am going through... What I feel, I could not express it myself, but this song somehow expresses it for me. Yuna, Thank you for this beautiful and heartbreaking piece.
It’s the worst thing when you have to face the person you love every single day at work and have to pretend like you don’t care when in fact every time she looks at me my heart breaks a little bit more
I met someone and he made it so very clear he doesn't want to belong to me and freedom felt better than what I could give, and he stole my heart perfectly. But suddenly, I find myself OK-single, after years of feeling I need a significant other. Perhaps I am free. Perhaps it is just heartbreak and I may again long for that. I prefer being free though. And if one day I am in a better place and it comes then it comes.
Lol I love how for this video they just asked these two to stand near the ocean for 4 minutes. Joking aside this is song is beautiful in every aspect. 10/10
She is the literal definition of perfection. The violin. The whole aura to it. The moment at 2:14 - Makes me feel life. I feel lucky to come across this.
The fact that i was so hurt back then bcs of this one guy & suddenly this song came out & it explained my feelings in such a beautiful & painful way. Will never forget the happy memories. Will never forget the painful experience. Will never forget how i listen to this song repeatedly while crying. It will forever be my top 3 from my fav Yuna’s songs.
You were never mines to keep For years after I still weep The love I had is gone now The pain of never being loved stays around I come back to this song Knowing I did nothing wrong Love is all I had done Love wasn’t enough I will be back soon to listen When I’m in your reminiscence Of happier days In the grass where I used to lay Feeling tense I need release I pray we both find peace
Her music speaks to me on so many levels. Her music sinks in to the depth of my soul. I feel every emotion and word she sings and says. I'm so in love with her music. ❤❤❤❤
i've listened to this song throughout a bad relationship, we were off and on again, and this song was my only escape, It made me feel better. Now we are finally happy together. So thanks Yuna
The cinematography of this video is totally amazing. Soothing and calming to watch. Appreciate the video and music of this. Good job yuna and your team for creating this beautiful art!
She truly reminds me of SADE similar voices very comforting she really got my attention this morning i had never heard her music before till this morning i am loving it i never could out play SADE it never gets old an I’m sure YUNA will be the same❤️🙏🏻 #unique #talent #gifted #Yuna #Great #discovery🍾
i just discover this song and when I listen to it, i burst into tears!! i have no words to explain how beautiful this song is and how deep emotion i feel when i listen to it! it literally infiltrate my heart and soul and mind entirely
So glad Tyler collabed with her otherwise, I would never have stumbled upon this opening poem. Recently just went through a sort of break up trying to figure how to fill the void she left me. She texted me just yesterday probably an attempt to go back to "what we were", but it was an unrequited love which I needed to let go... And this poem really put into perspective what I am feeling
I just love this song. It touches my soul, helps me to understand a part of me. Love is tricky because we make it complicated. Love is a mutual choice ...some are lucky to find true love but most of the time it's unrequited!
The poetry in the beginning combined with the images is breathtaking. Taking the frequently used idea of water and the sea being good/comforting/nurturing and flipping it the way she did is brilliant.
This remind me to Ada Apa dengan Cinta 1, indonesia film . When Cinta and Rangga made a poem . " Kulari kehutan kemudian teriak ku, sepi sunyi ak ingin bingar , pecahkan saja gelasnya biar ramai .. " Love this 💖
"you just know that no matter how beautiful the sea was, and how good it made you feel...it was never yours to keep...." that's the hardest thing EVER!!! So true! So relevant.....Reality at it's finest....
I came across this song 3 years ago when I needed to let go and move on, and now again I’m faced with a similar situation this song came on recommendation. Thank you Yuna ❤️
