"Sandman"

By:JK

Thy name is dream.

In thy realm they seek out which in the mortal world they dare not.

Softly whispered wishes that lie waiting in the minds searching to claw their way free

Are openly thrust out and fulfilled.

Who knew ones every ambition could come true

In the blink of an eye.

Or rather the shut?

Dream you've been generous to them all for so long

Letting them live out their every fantasy unlimited to the possibilities

In a sense letting them play fate to their own destiny

Alas Dream, thou art a sadist

Enjoying cutting their time in your domain once the dream peaks.

Does it not surge power through you Dream?

To send their wonderlands into oblivion just moments before they crescendo.

Do you not find yourself in a fit of laughter?

Sinister laughter from the pit of your gut where nightmares lurk

And ones' inner demons lay

Ready to consume all,

If ever given an escape

Control those nightmares for them won't you Dream?

Treat them well, to dreams they won't soon forget.

Because

Living in their mortal world

Is a nightmare all it's own

Sweet Dreams
