The Hunger Games- Gale Hawthorne
He looks into the mirror
All he sees is a
Reflection of self-hate, revulsion and remorse
He doesn't recognise the person-
no, not even a person but a thing-
staring back at him
Cold-blooded murderer
The day the bombs went off in the Capitol
Deaths, bloodshed, everything gone
His future with her
His life
His hopes
Gone,
gone,
gone.
He wishes he could turn back time
to take it all back
but he can't
he can never take it back
permanent and forever haunting his mind
He can't face anyone
can't talk to anyone
He is less than human
