Who am I?
I am your dad above all else.
Before I was, I was many things.
Many tales to tell.
But now I’m your dad.
I always will be
And I love it
Because I love you.
You are a part of me
And I’m a part of you.
My flaws are yours,
I question authority like you do.
I’ve climbed the hills
And caved below.
I’ve sailed the seas
And dived below these.
I’ve hugged your mum
And some trees.
I’ve studied hard,
Well, hard enough.
I’ve travelled the world
And come back home.
I’ve explored through a lens
A life of discovery.
But I see clearer through your eyes.
There’s so much of my life
To open up to you:
My history, my fears,
My likes, my tears,
My arms, my ears.
Unknown.
My arms, my ears.
