Haunters

What ghoul haunts my dreams,
and makes me toss and turn?
What ghost tells me
Not to trust the people I like?
What phantom convinces
that I am not beautiful?
What troll says that
“I will never be good enough for anyone?”
certainly not the Holy Ghost,
I know and I hear my savior say,
"Peace, be still, trust ME, you are beautiful,
You will always be enough for me."
