I watched with fleeting eyes

The man's whose lips I now despise

As they kissed you day after day

I felt my chances slipping away

How I longed our places reversed

Instead of simply watching the districts curse

I longed to hold you in my arms

Protecting you from the capitols harms

But instead I was a coward

By my feelings and knowledge of you over powered

You would have hated me more

If had left our families alone to watch the gore

I cannot control fait

But I can control my hate

My jealousy of that baker son

Is surpassed far by none

But he did not cause the games

And my response would have been the same

If I had the choice between my life and yours

I would have walked to death's doors

I hope you realize my love is real

The pain in my heart will not heal

But he protected you as I never could

I promised and failed as I never should

If I could go back to change the past

I would have made our old life last

We still could have sparked rebellion you and I

We would have made the sparks fly

But I cannot go back

That skill I simply lack

I never could adapt well

When I was in a mood you always could tell

If you hate me I understand

The feelings you have I cannot mend

You showed me the monster

Prim's innocent face the poster

For the ruthless man I had become

I did things that should never had been done

I leave knowing if you cannot forgive me

Forgiven I do not deserve to be

You will never again my face

The one that simply became a mace

You are better off without my existence

It should be me that is dead not Prim and her inocence

I have a final promise I will keep if it is the last thing I do

I will never again hurt you
