"Beware, so that his shadow cannot burden your sleep with horrible nightmares." - Nosferatu, 1922


My shaking hands
My ribbons of smoke
Through bloodshot eyes
I will not cry

Motionless gestures
My apathy
Through chapped lips
I will not lie

Paralyzed in agony
Speed through my veins
Across my tongue
I cannot die

Screaming ecstasy
My rotten smile
And still, morphia
I will not cry
