Showing two previous posts from current post on single.php

Hey there,

I’ve been looking everywhere and I can’t believe I haven’t found it yet, don’t know what’s going wrong here.

I got a single.php and I want to have an area with the two posts that were posted right before the current post.

Say I have post 1-5, on single-1 I want to show posts 2&3, on single-3 I want to show posts 4&5. But it’s not working, it just shows the first two posts ever posted (so always 1&2). Can somebody tell me what’s wrong?

$curTime = get_the_time("j F Y");
$args = array(
	'date_query' => array(
		array(
			'before'    => $curTime
		),
	),
	'posts_per_page' => 2
);
$query = new WP_Query( $args );

if ( $query->have_posts() ) {
	while ( $query->have_posts() ) {
		$query->the_post(); ?>
<?php the_title(); ?>
 <?php } ?>
		</div>
	<?php	

} else {
}

wp_reset_postdata();

?>

Thank you for your help! ??
