The haunted dreams I had came true,
The time has come for us to choose,
My heart burned with a fire so blue,
Reflecting the love I had for you,

I used to think I would never leave,
I thought I would always feel the same,
But as we went through life things changed,
The fire in my heart now reflected the pain,

Now as we come on the last day,
There is one thing I would like to say,

You lit a fire in my heart,
And now that it seems to fall apart,
I remember you taught me to stay strong,
No matter what happens I’ll keep holding on

Though the haunted dreams I had came true,
And a time had come for us to choose,
My heart still burns with a fiery hue,
Reflecting the love I’ll always have for you.

My body is frozen and my heart is filled with dread,
I see her shock with the shaking of her head,
I screamed out “NO” and offered to take Prim’s place,
Effie called his name to and we went up with haste,
They took us to a room where we said our goodbyes,
I promised to win as I started to cry,
The group was quiet as we boarded the train,
I meet out mentor Haymitch and he seemed far from sane,
We meet the other tributes all different in size,
Some seemed very foolish but other seemed wise,
We practice all day to make sure we were fit,
For the pain we will endure will be far worse than just a hit,
I know I should save Peeta as a repayment of my debt,
But I remember my promise to prim and I’m filled with regret,
After I say goodbye to Cinna I see the Arena and feel pain,
Why did Peeta and I both have to be in the Hunger games.
Another old poem I wrote about the first Hunger Games novel.

May
Between April and June is a month called May,
Where the sun is shining every single day,
Where the birds are singing,
And the church bells are ringing.

Why is May so wonderful you might ask?
Just take a moment and its secret we’ll unmask,
May is the perfect time to just decide
To go to and fro with the changing tide
To follow your dreams without any fears
To have your worries just disappear.
To sing along to a beautiful song,
To dance to the music like nothing is wrong,
To give your heart to the one you love,
To soar alongside the skies above,
To go and spend precious time with friends,
To wish that this time of year would never end.
An old poem I wrote about the lovely month of may

Lovely is* the moment that we
appreciate the day given to us by God and
endless is the universe that turns evermore
As the dawn slowly melts from light *
into night

Still** is the Earth as I walk down
the narrow path. I know the
days are short but I still
continue through my journey,
on and on I go
without rest,
my heart feels weak and without my
recognition the world. goes. dark.

I thank you so for all you have given,
You’re a man so great with a heart so driven.
Driven to do all that is right,
In a world filled with darkness you are the light.
The Light that gives me joy and love,
A love so honest it come from above,
Above where God watches over us,
The two of us in this relationship filled with trust,
God brought us together and we know he’s never wrong,
About us, he knows this is where I belong,
And you belong with me, hand in hand.
No matter what happens by your side I’ll always stand.
And through our lives I know that in the end,
I have truly fallen in love with my best friend.
The poem I wrote to my best friend for valentines day

Before
Before I gave in to my lust and sin,
Before I let it take over, before I let it win,
Before he took my confidence and threw it in the trash,
Before I tried to solve things with a single little slash,
Before he used his words to hold and tie me up,
Before I finally said "Enough is enough",
Before I ran away, and finally was set free,
Before I saw the truth, the answer, the key
Before my Hero came and gave me peace and strength,
Before I gained the confidence to soar to great lengths,
Before I ever met him, I sang a beautiful song,
But after all that happened, I'm still standing strong
