My Heart Poem by Katniss Everdeen

My head screams at me to 'stop',
'Turn around, walk away',
My legs turn to jelly,
Trying to save me from dismay,

I try to call out,
There's nothing but a squeak,
I need find and tell you,
But my body's growing weak,

Lead fills my shoes,
My stomach ties up in knots,
My vision turns blurry,
I see little black dots,

My eyesight returns,
Though just for a while
But I see you're close
You turn around and smile

My knees give way
And I collapse on the floor
You rush over to help me
I just can't take it anymore

My brain screams in my face
My feet resist, don't tread
My stomach shrieks in my ear
As my heart whispers 'Go ahead'...
