Crawling out of wide open books strewn around there beds

The final page they read is where I reside

Thats where I, a dream bringer hides

I bring them to children, who read before there eyes slide shut

The kids who can never get enough reading

The ones who’s eyes close as they keep reading late into the night

I pull my little body out of there books and rest in there hair

I bring dreams from there novels, short stories, poems, series any writing really

They transport into the world of make-believe

I let every kid dream about what they always wished was real

Sometimes they are night-mares

I have no control

Simply, I bring them the dreams of books

Whatever part they left up on there they get put in

The kids make up the rest of the book in there dream

All  because of dream bringer me

While, I bring fanticifal dreams.. I am weak

I am simple

Five lines and a circle

I am stick figure

Drawn in harsh black ink

I don’t even have eyes, or a nose or mouth

I never see the sleeping children, I cant even hear them 

Somehow I know they are there

Every young bibliophile has there own dream bringer

We never meet the others so life is lonely  

The kids don’t even know we are there

But, I still love it

I can somehow feel there smile even though I cannot see it.

My dreamer was perfect

A different book every night 

New stories, she loved it

I brought a dream of magic and wizards

I brought a dream of fighting to death

I brought a dream of being part god

I brought dreams of love

I brought every dream imaginable 

All perfect

At some point she stop reading

Books are replaced by phones and laptops

Then I have no purpose

They grew up and lost the fantastical world of books they once comfortably resided in

I am a dream bringer

A lost one at that

My dreamer is grown and doesn't care about books

I am a lost dream bringer 

My dreamer is lost as well

But, still every night I wait to bring sweet dreams once more.
