I remembered when we rode a plane
To a place I haven’t been before
And you had, so I thought that
You would give me the window seat,
But you didn’t.
I remembered when we had coffee.
Two sachets of cream were served to you.
I only got one, so I thought that
You would give me the other,
But you didn’t.
I remembered when we waited for 11:11.
We were quite weary, yet I held on
‘Til 11:11. You dozed off. I almost.
I thought you’d wait with me,
But you didn’t.
I kept asking myself
On why you weren’t the right one
And I remembered those little things.
What I thought you would,
But you didn’t.
How all of a sudden, I realized
That somehow, the little things
Are the ones that count.
And beyond those are *******.
I should’ve known.
I didn’t have any idea
That you weren’t the right one
When we were together;
When we fell for each other
And I should’ve.
