A Golden Glow

i'm as lost, as the midnight star
on a cloudy night
not a twinkle in site
my shine
lies in the shade
like a shroud
my spirit cowed
wondering whether my light will shine
if there is no-one there to see it
a lone, faraway light
lost behind a cloud
for the rest of the night
until the cloud moved
just as the sun had risen
digesting all starlight
in its golden glow
