The Hunger Games


A young girl, chosen for a death game

Another volunteered in her place

She picked up her bow and took her aim

With a tear slipping past her face


When the Games started, she ran to safety

With a friend from home along

They found romance and they lived bravely

Humming the mocking jay song


Friends have died and foes have been killed

The two have gone through pain

However, the two lovers were very skilled

And survived though they felt so vain


The Games have ended, the tributes of twelve

Lived to the end, in riches they dwelled.
