Dragon Ball/Z/GT Fan Fiction ❯ Ramblings of the Heart and Mind ❯ Ice ( Chapter 6 )

[ T - Teen: Not suitable for readers under 13 ]

Disclaimer: Disclaimer: Dragonball Z is owned by Akira Toriyama, Toei, Viz, Funimation and a lot of other people not me. I am using their universe for fun not profit. I would prefer not to be sued. Every time I look at him
I think of Ice
Ice that can shape mountains
And worlds

His gaze can freeze
Make his enemies shiver
Make me shiver
Make me weep

I, who let nothing daunt me,
Am chilled by the frigidity in his eyes

Hard as a stone
Yet as fragile as glass
Crystalline in perfection
But flawed by opaqueness
I see him with diamond clarity
To the cracks within
Caused by pressure and stress
Which mar his soul

I want to be engulfed by him
Covered by the blanket of his icy stillness
Until I wake
Refreshed
Rejuvenated
Bolstered by his coolness
Quenching the flames of my desire

Of all my battles
And all of my foes
He is and always has been
The one I could not,
Would not,
Defeat
He is my true match
My greatest rival
My greatest desire
He is my prince

He has slowly enured himself into my life
Plucking out the Non-Saiyajin qualities
Molding my shape
Smoothing my rough edges
I have been changed by him
From the striations on my heart
To the glacial stillness of my soul
I have been formed anew

He fills up the cracks
Ones I didn't know existed
Expanding them
Eroding them
Breaking them away
Forcing me to improve my defenses
Otherwise he will wear me away
Until there is nothing left

With him by my side
I am invincible
He complements me
Completes me
He is strong
Where I am weak
Only he can satiate my burning lust
For battle
And for him
Vegeta, my prince of Ice.~*~

AN: This is the second of a series of four poems which I wrote at work in October of 2002. As I mentioned in my earlier author's note, I found the poem "Fire" after my move in July. My roommate found this one in a box we had lying around about a month ago. I immediately transcribed it into Word so that I wouldn't lose it again. But I didn't publish it because it seemed more bulky and less poetic to me than the earlier poem. I've been fiddling with it off and on for the past few weeks and I don't think it is going to get any better. I have done some major line changes. Gone are some of the references to glaciation "Morraines, calving, etc." as well as a couple of the more repetive sections. A few glaciation references remain, sorry if you don't recognize a meaning or word that's probably the reason.

There are two more poems in this series and if I find them or am able to recreate them, I will publish them. But for now I actually want to work on finishing my stories. Before publishing more poems.

Until the next time!
