Mockingjay

All my life, I've been playing many games
With a large scythe in the night just to clear my pure name.
I have my insecurities, keeping it to myself with utter secrecy
As an uncanny newbie, people belittle my trusted ability.

To be fresh, I verily want to move on
To a new quest just to show them that I'm strong.
Being blue is a nature I must embrace
But to be true, red is also a jewel I must wear as a necklace.

All my life, I've been held captive
In my mind, that's making me less active.
With five feisty syllables, the new title of a bird reigns
For I know I'm more than capable, I'm not letting it all go to waste.

I know I can build a kingdom of my own,
And I know it won't be something that can be easily blown.
If this game I'm playing now is like The Hunger Games,
Then I guess it's time to feed them my pain.

"I may not be a born leader", the thing I usually say
But soon you'll see me flying over, in the form of a Mockingjay.
If I will forever remain as a jailbird with a gun,
Then I might as well be the burning one.
