Kamaile Pa’aluhi
Thousands of unsent emails
Words left unsaid
I just can’t compose the right words
It’s impossible to get you out of my head
How would I tell what everyone knows
You walk past and my heart begins to flutter
I feel the redness spreading across my face
Now I can’t focus and my words stutter
I’m not one with my words
It becomes hard to concentrate and difficult to think
This language seeming alien as I attempt to talk
You walk away before I can even blink
Although it will be a while before I talk to you
I get anxious and nervous, I won’t deny
So here, I can only secretly wish you one thing
A happy Valentine’s.
