Dear daddy

A rap

Dear daddy,

There ain’t nobody compared to ya,

Never be anyone near to ya,

Know I’m always there for ya,

When I ain’t with ya,

I’m missin’ all of your kissin’,

And your sarcasm,

And wisdom,

And kidding around,

And living life —

To the fullest,

You really are the coolest,

You could always be down in the dumps,

From the sh*t that you’re going through,

But it’s the — smile on your face,

That puts a smile on my face,

And lightens up the whole place,

And brightens up my whole day,

I’m so grateful that I got you in my life, I —

Hate to imagine life without you, time flies —

Like an arrow,

And Groucho says fruit flies like a banana,

I cherish the time I got with you,

’Cause, we may not see manaña!

-17-year-old me

My dad was suffering from motor neuron disease at the time and has sadly since died.
