There're much
  More
Less
   Interesting
Things
   Occurring
In here
  Than
    The tumult
Outside
    These
Windows,
   But
  It's ok:
I've learned
    How
To make
    Tears
   Crystalline
  And how
     To bleed
    With the setting sun
   So stealthy
    Nobody
     Notices.

I am in love with the white walls of potential
white walls, white walls
I am in love with the sky and all the little doves
white, like the white walls
stark but never gray
I am in love with things I'll never be
the white vision of rage
before it is stained red
always searching for the walls
but only the white ones, never just gray
I am in love with the clouds
but not just the sky, never just the sky.
the sins of all the world lie on your head. - imagine dragons

I was clutching on tattered vines
Praying fervently to all that are divine
To let it hold
Please make it hold

I was gripping tightly on my last strand of faith (I'm slipping)
Just let me hold
Let my life hold

Then you pulled at me
And I went crashing

So here I am with a shattered heart, a broken soul and a tattered gown.
This is about how you're barely holding on without going mad and then yearning for some guy's love turns out to be your breaking point. It's titled Stark Naked because I wanted to write something about vulnerability and here it is.

an ahsen'd sea
falling down the ceiling like rain
in cold I can't sleep
and tears have been bled again

i wish I could see
all the faces that change
pick one for me
so I can hide my pain

hope i can still feel
if ever things go back the same
these wounds must heal
or I will drive myself insane

in the moments that were killed
by the memories I once had
an abyss slowly and calmly filled
until even the sunlight growed black

i see an Apocalyptic
tale weaved in my dreams
a cryptic voice
that now and then screams

while I sit so naked
in the dark so alone
all this time I've waited
for someone to find home

ashes falling on my skin
hiding me somewhere in this room
as when the lights go dim
you can almost see my gloom

you can touch them scars
and you can find it in my eyes
in there you'll find no heart
it has been eaten by them lies

I have a pen to speak my curse
but no one here to hear my song
for all that I say in my every word
so much silence has come and gone

I must not let myself disappear
in the hollow of my own cage
be consumed by my fear
and burnt alive by my rage

but these chains won't leave
until I become who I have to be
all these other faces I keep
someday I've to set them free

chanting those names
I think I'm finally falling asleep
I'm not here to play no games
a point end can cut deep

i will spill this rain on them
and feed them the burnt embers
only one way this will end
'cause the north always remembers
Got !

Get my hands away
from your thigh
brutally change
for trains of people purging
the time
of distempered crises.

My father, my father
Now he's going to see
I've proven myself worth a bother
And there's no stopping what I can be
Future king of the islands of iron
And son to the one who they currently worship
Sprung in the hard isles, I was
But raised in the frozen north
I can only imagine the plans father will put forth

Now that I've sailed
Though with an unruly crew
The iron price shall prevail
Because my father says it's true
And he is His Holiness
And the undisputed head of my native land
I can do nothing to quell my hopefulness
On these ****** rocks, on this crimson shore I stand
Now and again though I've been told
That I am Theon of the North
And am a part, no longer, of the isles where I was birthed
I will show my father just who his son has become
****** it in the face of islanders who don't believe in their rightful heir
I've made mistakes, misstepped the side who won
But I am a noble, one born into which I will flair

I'm off home now, though it is my snowfallen one
Where I learned what is right
Where there is no such thing as an "iron price"
One which is embedded in my heart so tight
But I mustn't look back now
At all I have gained from these people and lands
For it's time to wake this sleeping cow
I know it is right when I step foot on the sand
March my men straight back "home"
Sneak up, like proper thieves, and sack my once-called castle
Who would've thought it'd be such a gods-be-****** hassle
Based on the character of Theon Greyjoy in George RR Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire series. The events in the poem mostly occur in book two, when Robb sends Theon back home to the Iron Islands to talk his father into siding with the newly minted King in the North. Theon's father, Balon Greyjoy, shows little respect and love to his son who then promptly returns to Winterfell to sack the place he once called home.
