Creature of the night,
Blood flows like a crimson sea,
coldness from the heart.
upon the souls of others,
he lives forever.
Nosferatu is his name
it means the undead,
both a myth and a legend
he drinks as a leech
and hunts like he were a cat.
his charm intrigues you
he sleeps in his wooden bed
resting under ground
he awakens in the night
the sun lets him rest
his soul is returned to him
he fears only death.
for natural death is not.

Time and space are not constant, but floating around like the inside of a giant metaphysical lava lamp

Nosferatu is my nickname in another forum, so I just had to read this one. Great piece B.C, I really enjoyed it.

Good work and very chilling! Though I'd change

'...and hunts like he were a cat."

to

'and hunts like a cat'

But great imagery - I've always found the image of nosferatu MUCH more frightening than Dracula!
