I wish I had told you

When you were still you

How much I hated

The too much pints you

The falling asleep,

Face-planting a curry

The drenched jeans

Weekend in

Weekend out

Now I can tell you

You don't remember

Damn, Dementia, Damn

Damn, Damn, Damn

Along with your

eclectic taste in music

I inherited

Your addictive personality

So, thank you for that

Dad

Thanks for reading!
