Elucidating Questions

What I live for isn’t the compliment

It’s the look on their face when they see something they love

That mix of joy and wonder

I enjoy it when I feel it

I want to share that feeling

Adorned in all the colours with the shiny and the hearts

It’s me, but it’s also the reaction they have

See the compliment isn’t for me it’s for the thing

Compliments aren’t for me

I can never trust them

But to bring a spark of joy to someone’s life

It’s to make someone else’s face light up

All this I adorn for the audience’s sake

But at least it’s things I like now
