Can't hide The Light

Someone told me
The sun was overrated
For he loves the cover
Of the dark of night
No matter how hideous
He thinks his form
No matter the pain
That causes him to morn
The fear he cast
On passers by
It's out of heart
He chooses to hide
He feels to much
So clings to gloom
Afraid of hurt
If he were to be kind
But the shadows of the night
Can't hide the light
That dwells within
His mind

If I don’t already know this person,
He sounds like my kind of Guy.

I’m sure I’ll put this in MY library
