she's in love with him,
an utterly radiant love
that lights her being
and I'm happy for her

she can count on him
he'll be there, forever smitten
their love will endure
and I'm happy for her

she loves our friendship
its truth, respect, and honesty
our friendship will last
and I'm happy for her

she doesn't feel grief
even with our private yearning
she can ignore it
and I'm happy for her

I'll act for her sake
and let the charade continue
hiding private pain
and I'm happy for her
