Hidden Light

You are the sun behind a cloud.
Are you hiding from the world,
Or are you struggling to get out?

You're a tree in deepest winter.
Are you happy where you stand,
Would you move if no root hindered?

You are the crest upon the wave.
Do you like to play up there,
Or is escape the thing you crave?

You are a bird upon the wind.
Has your journey been so long,
That you forgot you had a friend?

You are the sun without a doubt.
Will you show your pretty face,
Or remain masked till you go out?
