What Success Means

We think about jobs
Money and fame
But we’ve forgotten
What is our name?

We thought of wealth
Own happiness
Do we really know
What is success?

What will you do
If you have everything?
If people don’t love you
You just lose something.

Success don’t lie
Material possessions
It’s happiness and heart
Real affection.
