A letter to the universe

Dear universe,

This is coming from a place of pain, i don't know if you can see the pain floating on in my thoughts.

I am standing at a pace which no longer gives me joy.

It didn't occur to me that it was going to take this long for things to fall in place, yes I'm a girl but does that mean I will struggle to achieve all i want?.

Everyone has turned their back on me, have you also joined the clique?

Some days back, i was a little bit happy, happy that a stranger could tell that i am a writer, you know I'm not yet writing to generate income, I'm still a beginner and I'm still writing for pleasure.

No day passesby without me anticipating for a change, you said all it could take me is to be positive at life, and that is all i have always done_ preaching positivity.

You once assured me with your tender voice that "it's only a matter of time", but it's taking ages already and it does not sit well with me.

I'm writing to you because you are my confidant _ because i have always involved you from the onset.

Please universe, do not disappoint me_ because you are my beacon of hope and strength, i preach resilience and consistency but right now? I can't even put up to what i preach, does this make me a hypocrite?

Dear universe come and set my paths right, pave way for me and hasten up the result of my efforts.

Yours Dearly,

Ebube
