Rue As My Ally

The little girl from District 11, Rue is her name, knows a lot more than I thought she would.  She is very smart with plants, but then again, when people think about District 11, they think of one thing-Agriculture.  She knows how to heal my wounds better than I ever could...and people thought I was the healer.  She was just being a nice kid when she found me, and I don't know why, seeing as she could've killed me, with the condition I was in.  So in return for her kindness, I offer her something in return: food and an alliance.  So now, while I'm walking through the woods, whistling to her, I feel desperate for her call back.  When she whistles her sweet tune, I feel as if I'm floating.  But it all ends when she gets pierced in the stomach with that spear.  And now, as I sit here and sing her a song, I think of how she reminds me of Prim so much, and I wish I could have saved her too.  But in the blink of en eye, she's already gone.
