lipstick stain on the teddy bear.

when I got home tonight.

and I recall that I made the bed when I got up this morning.

there's clothes on the floor that aren't even mine.

whose earring is that on the pillow next to my night stand?
whose lipstick is smudged on my teddy bear?

and...

I can't question this anymore.

but...

I'll have you know,

I loved you first
when there was no one else.
