The Girl On Fire
I wrote a poem about the Hunger Games trilogy. everything I wrote you have to understand from the books and/or the movies. I mainly talked about Katniss Everdeen.

Katniss Everdeen
Reserved and ordinary
Thinking of her sister
Becomes a tribute and a priority
She enters the arena with hope
Without her so called lover
She makes life destructive decisions
To save her life and another’s
Using her knowledge and skill
With her bow and arrow she began to dread
Taking the game ending aim
She sent her final shot flying through his head
She and Peeta were free for life
Escaping the hands of the capitol
But lived in fear and threat
For what they had done was radical
Life seemed hopeful and okay
Then the unimaginable happened
The girl on fire would be sent back
Her vision started to blacken
Back in the arena once more
This time with allies
Her goal to protect Peeta
Over him she worried and agonized
She was rescued and locked underground
She made a final choice
To be the symbol of rebellion
To be everyone’s voice
With that backlash hit her
Prim’s untimely death
Peeta’s disturbing return
She never truly could catch her breath
The girl on fire has been extinguished
In her place a girl who’s survived so much pain
A girl who’s caused and stopped many deaths
Katniss Everdeen is reborn as their Mockingjay.
