Maybe the real flex is letting people feel, say, and think what they want about you, while you continue living with ease, knowing their projections aren't yours to carry. Remembering who you are and what your truth is can protect your peace.

“When I say, I love you, it’s not because I want you or because I can’t have you. It has nothing to do with me. I love what you are, what you do, how you try. I’ve seen your kindness and your strength. I’ve seen the best and the worst of you. And I understand with perfect clarity exactly what you are.”

🤪 ADOLFO, MY FAVORITE MANIAC 😵‍💫

His name is Adolfo, my favorite maniac.

Not a lover but more than friend,

He definitely deserves a plaque.

For no one gets under my skin better than he.

But can he & his girlfriend get back together already so the rest of us can just be?!?! 😮‍💨

Adolfo, who broke this poor man?

Never have I met such a human tornado,

That drives me crazy like he can.

Never a dull moment when Adolfo is in your life,

He'll reveal your inner demons, creating intense moments of strife! 🥲

Adolfo, do you ever get tired?

Where do you find the energy...

Oh yeah, drugs keep you wired! 🙃

In all seriousness, as much as I hate to admit it,

You fit me like a sweater, you're the perfect fit.

Adolfo, oddly enough you tolerate me.

And maybe that's why I need you in my life,

Because you never really flee.

We have our ups and our downs, sure we argue.

But a life without you would be a dark cue.

Adolfo, I already said I'm sorry.

Jesus Christ what more do you want,

The moon, the stars and a Starry

Night, Vincent Van Gogh, shall I steal his painting?!

What more do I have to do, this is already so draining. 😭

JK it's not, I'm a pretty prolific writer, 🤓

And let's be real Adolfo,

You make my world a little bit brighter.

Not 1,000 coke benders or a million arguments could ever,

Get me to leave you,

You're just a part of my crew.

His name is Adolfo, my favorite maniac.

He's ignoring me, giving me the cold shoulder, turning his back,

On me but the truth is I don't really mind.

For I'll carry on, day to day, until he decides it's time. 🕰
