Alofa

By Jennifer Pudur  

I know I said love is cringe and I still think it’s true. 
Because I thought falling in love would be hard, but then I met you.

I told myself I won’t do this clearly.
Because I never thought I would love someone so dearly.

You make it look like it’s beautiful, you make it look like art.
Because of you, I can’t stop thinking about us when we’re apart.

For me, love was never beautiful, it felt like a waste of time.
But now, I feel so colourful with just one look at your smile.

To be happy in your happiness, to be sad in your sorrow, 
But this, I must confess, so all the people may know.

You’ll stay in my heart even when we’re close, even when we’re far.
No one can replace you because you’re my superstar.

But yes, love is still corny and a little cringe too. 
But I guess you have to be in a little pinch to get through.
