Sparkle is "the one"

I've just now realized...that she hates me. My cat hates me. I do everything for her, and do I get anything in return? No. Of course not. It's all about her.
Right now, I'm calling her. Does she come? No. She just sits there. She doesn't even glance up at me.
She pees on me while I'm sleeping. She takes poos anywhere and everywhere. She knows where the litter box is, and some days, only if she feels like it, she may use it. But mostly she does whatever she wants.
Some days, to spite me I know, she takes her poo right beside the litter box. And do you want to know why? Because she can. It's her daily way of reminding me that she is "the one" and not me. Damn. I can't even raise a cat properly? What kind of mother am I going to be?

That's all I got.

First thing you should know

I relate everything to a song or movie in my life. I would rather listen to music or watch movies about interesting things than actually do interesting things. This song will give you some insight as to where I am right now. It's a song by Lauryn Hill called "Selah." Sometimes I can't be bold enough to say or even write what I'm going through, but I can find a song that can say it all.






Nothing can be done against the truth
No matter how we remain in denial
Wasting time
Replacing time
With each empty excuse
But that'll only work a little while


Coping with despair
Knowing you're not there
Ashamed to just admit
I've been a fool


So I blame it on the Son
Run away from everyone
Hoping to escape this ridicule


Trapped in misery
Wrapped so miserably
In this deception that I'm wearing like a skin


Dying to mantain
Oh I keep trying to explain
A heart that never loved me to begin


Oh I'm such a mess
I have no choice but to confess
That I've been desperately trying to belong


Lying to myself
And everybody else
Refusing to admit my right was wrong


And then He came
Selah
And it means
Praise and meditation
And then He came
Selah
And it means
Did you think about that?
And then He came
Selah
Oh and it means
That it is sealed


How beautiful is fruit still in denial of its roots?
My guilty heart behaved so foolishly
This treason from within
That reasons with my sin
Won't be happy til it sees the death of me


Selfishly addicted
To a life that I depicted
Conflicted cuz it's not reality


Oh what's left of me
I beg you desperately
Cause me to agree with what I know is best for me


Please save me from myself
I need You to save me from myself
Please save me from myself so I can heal


The choices that Ive made
Oh have been nothing but mistakes
What a wasted use of space
Should I die before I wake?


In all of my religion
I've fortified this prison
Obligated to obey
The demands of bad decisions


Please save me from myself
I need You to save me from myself
Please save me from myself so I can heal
And then He came
Selah


And that's all I have for now.
