A recognition of your achievement
A fair return for good behaviour
The result of your own development
Something so small that can be your saviour
A lack of it can lead to goal abandonment
When it should not be the soul reason for labour
And that seems to be the source of torment
Thinking that it means we are a failure.
But it can be something small we give ourselves
Maybe we stop finally putting ourselves down
Or as small as putting our burdens upon shelves
For when we stop for a day without a frown
And we become our own little helper elf
Or give ourself a smile by being our own clown.
It can only be given by someone that we let
Because it only matters when we let it
So sometimes trinkets and papers are all we get
For from them, approval we do not permit.
So, we shouldn't chase after the external only
Or we could end up filled with junk but lonely.
