Hesitation

For years I've longed to be with you.
I've plotted, strategized, and nit picked
every single insignificant detail.
It had to be perfect, the timing just right;
It had to be dramatic;something that would
take your breath away.
And then....when the time came...
you introduced me to him.
The guy who sneaked in just beneath me;
the guy who was just one step ahead of me
and one minute ahead of schedule....
and I couldn't be happier for you.
I'm glad you found someone
who was a better candidate than me.
The one least likely, but the one most suited.
Perhaps I shouldn't have waited.
Maybe I shouldn't have plotted.
Could be that drama isn't the key.
Hopefully, I'll learn.
