The Unwelcome Visitor

The Unwelcome Visitor Please step into my nightmare Come in for a quick peek You can stay a moment A month, or a week You may feel restless, listless and dread But please do not worry It's all in your head Come into my kitchen I will cook you a dish Filled with confusion, and anger, and bliss Sleep in my bedroom But I might toss and turn It's alright if you wake me For soon you will soon learn Come down to my basement But please watch your step My stairs are so steep Its a damn mouldy mess So step into my nightmare Or did you think it a dream? I don't want you to go But you now have to leave ......me

Really, really loved the last stanza! What some call nightmares, others may call a dream. Well written and I loved the flow and the way this poem read. Excellent work.
