[She pours all her sorrow into the song. Sadness over all those she killed, all those who died because of her mere existence. The friends she lost: Finnick and Boggs, Madge and Rue, Rick and Arthur. Her sister, Prim, who never was supposed to die. Not in the seventy-fourth games and definitely not a mere year and a half later. All the people she would have died for. Should have died for.
More than anything, she sings for Peeta. He's safe here. There's no Games for him to wake up to, no fear of him being held by Snow. This boy has never been hijacked, still loves her completely. And she loves him. She does. It's always been him. Whatever love she felt for Gale, it's just not the same. Important, yes, but not nearly what she feels for Peeta.
Peeta, who hasn't given any sign of hearing her voice at all.
It takes a few minutes, after she finishes singing, to answer Clove's question. She's wiping tears from her face again, resisting the urge to curl up next to Peeta on the bed and let sleep claim her, too. She'd die for him. Again and again and again. Hang by his side off the tree branch.]
He's in a coma. [It's revealing weakness. But Clove knows that she'll kill anyone who dares to hurt him further.] I don't know why. I found him like this.
