Eyes closed
Darkness takes hold
****** into a world familiar to you

But distant.
Watching as mistakes
Are corrected and desires realized.

Eyes open
Light takes hold
As a cool breeze slithers around your body.

It was only ever a dream,  it will only ever be a dream.
Nadine Bergeron Nov 2011
The colour draining from my face.
The life draining from my body.
The hatred for the Capitol building.
The everlasting sound of her name.

“Katniss Everdeen”

She doesn't deserve to be killed.
She doesn't deserve to fight
An impossible battle to live.
That battle takes place here everyday.

“Katniss Everdeen”

It's painful to watch.
It's immoral to watch.
It's too vile to watch.
But I can't stray my eyes
      From
    Her.

“Katniss Everdeen”

The blood, the gore, the killing:
Is not the reason I can't look away.
Each glance, each touch with him
Kills.
Me.
Inside.

“Katniss Everdeen, I love you”


                                                          ­      - Gale Hawthorne
A poem based on The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins.

twisted words are all that's left
no hug goodbye
no final farewell
just a misunderstanding
that repeats itself
over and over and over
sorry has lost all meaning
and sounds like a broken track
                                      s
                                   p
there isn't enough u
to balance the d
                          o
                            w
                              n
                                 s

please say my efforts weren't in vain.
