Reason For My Smile

Years of hard work
Now, 
We have everything 
A complete world for you and me 
We lack nothing 
Job holding respect 
Money sufficient for anything 
Fulfilling all our needs, 
Also sufficient for our future children 
We have everything we need 
However, 
Looking into your eyes 
With a smile put on face 
Makes me realize, 
It is your smile, 
Which delights my heart 
It is your smile, 
Which moves me forward 
The reason I climb these steps of success 
It is your support 
Even if I fall, I'm not afraid 
I keep moving 
It is the glow in your eyes 
Which actually contents my heart 
Money is nothing 
Position is nothing 
You are with me in all times 
In the very dark times 
In the happiest times 
Falling doesn't scare me, 
Raising high doesn't amuse me 
But that smile of yours with those glowing eyes 
You, my wife 
You are the reason for my smile 
The reason for my smile
