Emanating confidence
Strutting everywhere you go
The busiest man
I have ever known
Whenever I have a question
I know who to ask
You always boast how you were
The smartest in your class
Your attention
Is always absent
Dreaming, scheming
Of something you'll invent
Hardships come
With every life
You'll never love anyone
As much as your late wife
You would not win
The best father award
Its difficult to tell
But I know your trying hard
I cannot tell you
How angry at you I've been
But now that I understand
I hope to be forgiven
