Liʻa

1. nvt. Strong desire; yearning, amorous; to wish for ardently, crave.

I absolutely LOVE that Hawaiian has several words for desire or to crave someone...
says something about the language and its attention to this strong emotion to be in the midst of someone, whether it is true love or a hormonal fog...

Kuʻu liʻa - my craving.
ʻAuhea ʻoe e kuʻu liʻa - where are you, my desire.
