Finally

When I can finally say I've achieved something... I no longer wish to.
When I finally have people who won't complain if... I put my feet up -- I no longer want to!

When I can possibly point out the wonderful things that can seem..
glamorous, beautiful... awe-inspiring and truly incredulous..
My heart is unwaveringly aware of how ridiculously fleeting all of it is..

Maybe I have found something that is worth more..
something like a truth, some self-respect and some sensiblity..
otherwise called a down-to-earthiness or pure humility
That sees that all that shines need not be shown
Or all that need be shown is not necessarily shine

What else can I say
or do when each and every day...
I have to face the purest form of truth and simplicity --
the eyes of the one I love.
Hari.
