i had a thought today

and it made me quite happy

i think

that even if the universe

hadn't been on my side

and i was still with him

on that earth-shattering day

i'd still have met you

and it still would have worked

and you still would have been mine

i like to think

it would have been you

all along

and the thought

puts my mind at peace

because i love you

and i would never

want you to go away

so perhaps

the universe has always been

on my side
