dear son
how you doing
hopefully fine
I don't know you yet
but in case we never meet
I just wanted to say
whatever you do
in your life
just know
that you will be my proudest achievement
no matter what
I love you
from the past

Dear Tim
how you doing
I know we grew apart
you were the best
and only Dad I ever had
I never quite forgave you
for the whole Mum thing
but I know why you did it
and I understand
and I didn't turn out like you
I know I made you proud
maybe for that reason alone
but I love you
and we'll talk more
and soon
until then
love,
your son

Dear Harry
what's there to complain about today?
Me most likely
but listen up
for every **** up I gave you
that's another thing
which nobody cares about
it's your life
do what you want with it
and any failure
or any success
is on you
so stop hating yourself
and the rest of the world
and do what I know you can
forget making me proud
make you proud
Love,
your father
