Some things are hard to say out loud. A poem written by Katniss in her time in district 13 that would never make it to it's intended recipient.


There lives in me a hunger,

A desire burning bright,

All this darkness that surrounds me

Ignites to bring new life

.

And from this darkness births me,

A sight for sorrow eyes,

Flames that burnt and scarred me,

Hide my new disguise

.

There lives in me this hunger,

A brightness within sight,

I only want to show you

What's behind these pale green eyes

.

But all this darkness binds me,

The flames start to subside,

It's here the shadows claim me,

A heartbeat slow to try.
