"Let that child alone!"--Piccolo, Dragon Ball Z.


I was somebody.
A hero to my peers' eyes.
Soon after, I'm nobody.
Then, I started to get a ton of jeers.

I realized that there is hope.
I must make things right.
As soon as I talk to the Pope.
Then, everything shall be bright.

I was getting things done.
I felt reborn.
Things were starting to look fun.
It was time to be adorn.

Unfortunately, after everything I've done, nobody saw me.
I was invisible. The people ignored my brand-new glee.

This is a poem about trying to become a better person for the sake of the people that once loved him. Will he regain the acknowledgement from his peers? Or will he be forgotten by all?
