The dock was lonelier than she remembered it being in her youth. Then again in her childhood, the boys had always stood beside her on it. They had disappeared again. Yet again, she was left behind. It had been years since her boys had gone. Did they still think about their princess? Or was she a faded memory. Had they not shared a paopu, were they not connected? The thoughts of her loves flooded her mind as she eased her body into the ocean below. She paused her musing, to note that the water was not as deep as she had remembered...But then again she had grown since then.
She walked slowly, gracefully towards the open water. The cold arms of the ocean embraced her delicate frame, as she pushed ever further into the deepening water. Soon the water swallowed her shoulders. The waters soon touched her full lips.
"Goodbye, loves."
And the water covered her head. She closed her beautiful eyes and smiled one last time as the darkness claimed her.
