A/N: This is pretty much my first real attempt at poetry of any kind. Chichi is lamenting over memories she has of Goku (set during those seven years he was gone), and how she misses him. I don't know where my inspiration for this piece came from, but I thought it came out pretty well. Enjoy. :)
Christmas
Do you remember that one Christmas?
That Christmas of joy?
When I gave you my heart
And said it wasn't a toy
You accepted it kindly with great lust
So much that I thought I might bust
The night was filled with such passion and grace
I could not have been looking at a more beautiful face
Since then love has vanished
These lonely stone walls have grown cold
Love has been banished
Leaving them no more memories to hold
It hurts to look around the house
Knowing that you are far gone
Even someone as tiny as Mr. Mouse
Realizes that there is no bed in which you lie upon
There is something that just doesn't feel right
Something that is much amiss
Oh, I know what it is
We never shared our last kiss
I was convinced I would see you again
So much so that when I heard the news
I truly thought I might go insane
"No," I said, "this cannot be true! Please, someone show me some clues!"
Then they held up a lone boot
A boot with string still tied around the front
At that moment my heart shattered
It crumbled into a million pieces
Each piece fell to the floor
Each piece scattered
Not a Christmas goes by that I do not think of you
Wishing oh-so-very-much that you were here
Somehow I know you are thinking of me, too
No one is there when I shed that one tear
In those solemn moments where I feel most blue
I hope you're aware that I still love you
Once again wishing that you were still here
You had your reasons for going
But I still miss you, Son Goku
