Salty As The Sea

by Ryan Alexander Lewis

How did Annie feel about Finnick's death? how did she deal with it? this is a poem about Annie's feelings and thought of the passing of Finnick Odair. This poem is a lot better than the summary. i hope you enjoy!

Okay, so, I just wanted to write this because I miss Finnick Odair so much! So I just wanted to write Annie's thoughts about his death. I cried when I read page 312 of mockingjay! I really hope you enjoy!

*** Salty As The Sea**************

At first I just thought he was running late.

But now he's gone forever….

We will never walk down the beach again

Never again to wander where the sun has gone

Never again will those all-white-men tell us to go home because it is dark

These tears I shed are as salty as the sea

He really did leave a mark on this world

No one realized it until he was gone forever

Never again to wake me when the darkness has consumed me

These tears I shed are as salty as the sea

Never again when those circus women leave will he run to my arms

Telling me it will get better

These tears I shed are as salty as the sea

He always said that it would get worse before better

These tears I shed are as salty as the sea

Its true, it has gotten better,

We fought, he left me, now with someone little

Who looks just like him.

These salty tears I shed are now tears of joy

I know he loves me very much, and is now watching over me

But these tears I shed are still salty as the sea

But now I see that this was meant to be

He is still watching over me…
