District 2
every detail
exactly as she said
My hair is as dark as the inside of a sealed cave. Darker. It is as soft as the silence at the end of a long orchestral piece. Softer. My skin is as pale as the bloodless color of death upon sunken cheeks. Only colder. Only more dead, if that were possible. My limbs come out of my body like slim twigs. They are muscle, but they are not strong as they should be. They are only fast, and they are only supple. They do not bruise easily, and my bones do not break with one blow. I am not tall, but I am not exceptionally short. 5'5" is a fair height for District 2. Most of my height would be legs.
My eyes are large, but spread too far apart. My nose is a little small, but it works on my face. It blends right in with my cheeks, which are nothing special, and you could mention my cheek bones are very low.
A collector's piece
Indeed
She often spoke of you
My friend
Will you still play
when all the rest of us are dead?
