you surprise me

Summary: When they see you, you're nothing more than a pleasant face. You're okay with that. You accept that. Marvel centric


they assume you're dumb

that you used

your looks

to get your way

they assume a lot

(they know nothing)

but you understand

you understand

a whole lot

they think you're reckless

(but you weren't looking for safety)

they think you're clueless

(but you weren't looking for acceptance)

and when you volunteer

they think you're as good as dead

(but you weren't looking for life)

when they see you

you're nothing but a

pleasant face

you're okay with that

you accept that

and when they think about you

you're nothing but a

child murderer

you're okay with that

you accept that

because when you

threw that spear

you made her a rebel

and you set

that little mockingjay

free

so when that arrow

pierces your skin

you're okay with that

you accept that

and even though,

you're a hero

you've been buried in

the ashes of the past

you're okay with that

you accept that, too.
