Note... This poem is written in Gohan's perspective seeing Piccolo die in the fight aginst Nappa


He stands there,

Straight,

Tall,

A dark silhouette against the light

That threatens to engulf us

Pure

White

Blinding

I can't keep my eyes open

And you still stand there unmoving

I can't hear your screams

The noise of the blast deafens me,

I was unaware of my own cries

How long has the light been here?

Minutes

Hours

Days

A single second seems to last an eternity

I focus on Piccolo

My pillar of darkness

In the sea of light

He is my anchor

The white dissipates

We are back

Back on the battlefield

The trees and area around me are horribly burnt

Then I see Piccolo

Standing there

But

His clothing is ripped beyond repair

And he's bleeding

Smoke drifts off his body

He falls

I run to him

He's in pain

As I get closer

Bend down beside him

The smell of burning flesh

Threatens to overwhelm me

I cry

From the bottom of my heart

He probably thinks I'm a wimp

But I can't help it

It's so painful

Kurrin told me

If Piccolo dies we can't use the Dragon Balls to bring him back

He's gone

Forever

I look at him

A single tear falls from his eye

That one tear spoke a thousand words

I scream

The smile I feel in my heart is too much to bear

In the comics the hero's never die

So why did my hero dissipear……
