I Hate To Admit It

~ Inspired by the likes of Hoplessly Devoted to You ~ The reflection of your beauty are shadows on the wall, The abstract of your spirit is still standing in the hall, I know I am a victim of this ghostly fantasy, I hate to admit it, but your love is haunting me. I hate to admit it, but you appear wherever I go, I can't fight the feeling as the magic begins to grow, The thrill of believing brings a scary urgency, I hate to admit it, but your love is haunting me. As I lie here not sleeping somewhere deep in the night, Your whisper of desire brings a passion of fright, I can't go on believing as the spirits above agree, I hate to admit it, but your love is haunting me. I hate to admit it, but life is running late, What love has to offer will die throughout the wait, I must find a way to break this broken heart free, I hate to admit it, but your love is haunting me.
