If I Could
I would if I could
Write the greatest poem
Fill it with words that could change the world
Words that could end wars
Cure diseases
End poverty
Make people fall in love
It would be a beacon of hope
Rest the dead
And give life
I would if I could
And when I finished
I would destroy it
Burn the pages of something great
I wouldn’t think twice
I am no God

Interesting choice, I would like to say I would do the same, but I would probably one of those characters who believes that they could change the world for the better and end up corrupted by the power.
The depth to this poem and the possibilities it opens up is absolutely thrilling!

Thank you for reading :)
I know I wouldn't be able to handle the power, which gives claim to me not being a God
