Be Content With You
Be content with you,
Satisfied with yourself without being, “Self satisfied,”
We are a constant work in progress, true,
But the true value of yourself, to you, should never be denied,
Know that in the end, you are enough,
Because you set your own standard, decide your own will,
And a life valued in material stuff,
Will leave a bottomless void that you can never fill,
So be content that you are what you are,
But keep an open mind on what you might be,
Material wealth, big house, flash car,
Are not defining, they’re just frippery,
And if there is an emptiness at your heart,
A void so deep the whole world could fall through,
Then know that no objects, no money, no art,
Can fill it, until you fill it with you.
