Polynesia

The retired trucker stood on the cruise ship deck

He spend his career driving

Silent

The only thing he missed on the road was her voice

And now he could finally take her on the trip of a lifetime

Polynesia

The day that she died

Her voice told him he had to be happy, however he could

But he didn’t know how

The moonlit deck was empty

Silent

He throws himself over the railing

Her voice tells him to keep going

And with each steady movement

The silent island gets closer
