Light me a candle--

would you my dear?

I need to find

my way back from here.

I've lost my way--

I've gotten far off track

So light me a candle

for me to come back.

Can you show me the path

to that humble abode

Can you bring me in

out from the cold?

I long for the warmth

the soft glowing fire

Instead of all the

mud, muck, and mire.

So light me a candle--

please do, my dear.

I long to come back,

For tis horrid out here,

Love the poem. I hear Breaking Benjamin's Give Me a Sign when I read this. I think pretty good option would be to stick with the first line as the title. "Light Me a Candle" If you don't want to go the simple route and prefer something more poetic, you could choose a literal interpretation of what you were thinking about when you wrote it. The title can sometimes be just as meaningful as the poem itself. Enjoying reading this latest output...
