U ARE IN LOVE WITH SOMEONE ELSE

You're in love with someone else.

I can see it in your face.

You may as well have their name,

On your cheeks, in uppercase.

I'd say 'congratulations',

And drink to your happiness.

But I'm intoxicated,

With an aching loneliness.

You look like a sunny day.

I feel like I'm a rain-cloud,

Full of all the hurt I feel,

That I cannot say out loud.

I would give you a smile,

But that's something I can't do,

When I'm all cut up inside,

As I'm so in love with you.
