Unwanted Guest!

The family moved into the nice large home

their eldest had not seen it.

Being away until the day they all entered

deciding it didn’t feel right.

Trying to tell them the unease she felt within

as their residency did begin.

 

So they settled in with absolutely no problems

except for their daughter Jo.

One night awoke suddenly and sat up with a jolt

usually a deep sleeper.

With no idea what caused it as nothing was about

then heard a voice shout!

 

Not keen to look hoping it was a natural sound

settled back under the covers.

Closing her eyes tightly hearing another noise

opening her left eye.

Saw a woman leaning over close to her cheek

unable to scream or speak!

 

Tried to tell her parents who didn’t understand

the atmosphere fine for them.

Putting this behind her with nobody to confide

but not long after sat quietly.

An unopened bottle of water fell off her table

she thought had been stable!

 

No windows open the bedroom door shut tight

leaving her very disconcerted.

Why was she  the one of unwanted attraction

centre of disembodied attention.

Then the unplugged television turned itself on

not to be there she did long!

 

These incidents are still ongoing nothing changed

she began to get a complex.

What in these premises had made the spirits stir

thinking it was time to leave.

But financial restraints she had no choice but stay

this problem wouldn’t go way!

 

What unknown forces were at work here

who was the unwanted guest?
