Book Of Dreams



In the Book of Dreams, I hold immense power,
The creator of worlds, I shape each hour,
Every turn of the page, a new universe born,
My weapon of love, my tool to transform.

With each stroke of the pen, I bring forth life,
From the depths of my mind, a world takes flight,
A symphony of creation, a canvas to paint,
The Book of Dreams, my eternal estate.

But with great power, comes a great cost,
For every life I create some I must exhaust,
With each flick of the wrist, a universe destroyed,
My weapon of love, my double-edged sword.

Yet still, I wield the Book of Dreams,
My heart and soul, my very seams,
For I am God, the creator of worlds,
My weapon of love, my eternal swirls.

So let the pages turn, the worlds unfurl,
My power unleashed, my dreams uncurl,
For in the Book of Dreams, I am the king,
And with each universe, a new song to sing.
