Poem [Tongan translation]

Once, when I wander into your thoughts

Like a foggy shape in the distance

Whose face you don't recognize,

But whom you feel close, nevertheless...

When, for a brief moment, your eyes

Reflect memories and our dreams,

Reminding you of a time long gone,

I which you had a dream...

When a song, old and so familiar,

Takes you back to a small town,

To a bridge you used to call yours,

But no longer remember its name...

When you suddenly make a sigh

Filled with unexplainable sorrow

That overwhelms you, squeezing your heart

And you don’t know why…

Then… smile…

For no reason, no motive…

Just like that…

Give me the last smile,

Once more, for good-bye…

Let me go away happy,

Carrying your face in my heart and my eyes…

Let me go away

Like I’ve always been…

Forever yours…
