(~In case you're wondering, this poem is about Gohan's point of view when Nappa has just hit Piccolo with that blast thingy ~I THINK it was Nappa anyway... it's been a while since I saw that episode~ and Piccolo is laying on the ground in the process of dying... So this expresses Gohan's point of view of the whole thing.~)


Thank You, My Teacher


I see him lying,
Dying there,
I had no idea,
How much he could care,
But as I watch him,
Now I know,
He was never against me,
He was never my foe,
He was determined to train me,
To teach me he would,
Now I want to tell him,
That he did good,
Don't leave me already,
I need you much more,
You are my best friend,
Right down to the core,
Thank you, my teacher,
Thank you so much,
Thank you for showing me,
A heart I could touch,
Thank you my teacher,
Thank you my friend,
Please don't give up,
Don't let it be the end,
Keep being strong,
Like you always are,
Even though you are torn,
With a large battle scar,
You were more than a teacher,
More than lessons of fighting you send,
You taught me the lesson,
Of having a friend,
Thank you so much,
My teacher,
My friend,
For the lasting bond,
That will never end...
