A Princes Sacrifice

He raises his weary bloody head,
His blond hair waving in the wind.
He is alone now but for one other being,
Evil incarnate, he has sinned.
An M scars the warriors head,
Changing him into evil's pawn.
His son, a mere boy, and his friend
Are taken away, away from the war.
The warrior stands, facing the evil one
He will stop this beast, whatever it takes.
But to end this evil the Saiyan knows
A great sacrifice he must make.
Every law he was taught as a small boy
He turns his back on his past
Before he was cruel and ruthless
But on Earth it would never last.
Showing him that love is no weakness,
One other Saiyan, a heart as pure as gold
The great Earth defender
Held in contempt by the Prince whose heart was cold.
But still he became different
Far changed from before
Though he never showed it,
He learned to care much more.
Now was the time to prove it
His one and only chance.
Power flowed through his body
His Saiyan spirit rose like a lance
Charged for the final blast,
He remembers the ones he cares for.
As he bids his farewells, a smirk on his face
His clothes all bloody and torn
Roaring triumphantly
He then accepts his fate
His dome of energy let loose,
There was no more time to wait.
The last thought in his mind
Before the end was such
Was for his wife, his son,
And the Saiyan who showed him so much.

Now he is alone,
His blast exhausted of all strength
Silence surrounds him
The pain subsides at length.
It is all over now,
He has given all he can.
His skin is cold and rough
As dark as when time began.
But he is satisfied and happy,
For the warrior has done well
There is no more he can do now,
Only time will tell
He closes his eyes
Filled with tears
A smile on his face
That will last for years
He is alone on the battlefield,
And is shrouded in a mist of red
There is no-one there to comfort him
For he knows that he is dead.
