No One but You

No One but You

I don’t cry for you now

not like I did at first

when she walked in smiling

wearing my perfume

You held her hand

like it meant nothing

like we were nothing

I told her everything

She was my best friend

she knew how we kissed

she knew what you meant to me

she knew too much

I packed your things

folded the shirts you left behind

I didn’t shout

I didn’t beg

I just watched the door close

And I moved on

found peace in small ways

learned to sleep without checking my phone

woke up without waiting for your voice

But still

some part of me stayed behind

back in that kitchen

where you held my waist

while the kettle whistled

I don’t want you back

not the one who left

not the one who lied

but the one you were before her

The one who kissed my shoulder

and didn’t need to say a word

The one I trusted

more than anyone

I moved on

I really did

but my heart

wants no one

but you
