It draws me light a candlelight
Flickering in the darkest night
It draws me and I don't know why
I have to go on with a sigh
It draws me like a moth is drawn
Whose wings are burned but soon returns
I don't know where the way will go
I follow on the candle glow
I see the end but do not fear
The finish of another year
Its life itself that drawn me on
The candle dims, the life is gone.

Hello Doreen:
I see the candlelight as a metaphore for life itself. Aftrer all, without life what is there? Hence, we carry on, year after year; that is - until the light is gone.
As course, poetry is metaphore. And I must say, I belive you've handled it nicely.
Thank you for posting.
