Can I change how things are supposed to be?
I don't care if I'm destined to be the happiest on another path.
I'd settle for just happy with you.
I want the trail overgrown with weeds
and fallen trees
because it ends with you and me.
I don't know better yet,
I don't have to know better.
I can accept you as the best I can get-
as the happiest I can be.
I'm begging the universe to let me have you-
with all the stretches, rips, and frays it creates in time
and what was planned to be mine.
