Dear Universe

I’m waiting

I’m doing everything I need to after having my world flipping upside down

I don’t have the stamina to keep going

Nor do I have the strength

I just want to curl up into a ball and disappear

The world has abandoned us

To be told to wait it out is a slap in the face

Karma will have its day with those who chose who put us here

But it shouldn’t mean we still feel like we’re drowning with no life preserver in sight

Constantly asking for help

Doors constantly being slammed in our face

Stop taking it out on me just because I decided to stand up for myself and advocate
