The (Lamp) Post

Yet again the sun would set
And yet again a shadow would cast
But I shall guide you to the shore
Right until my breath shall last

While you admire the setting sun
In a silhouette I shall calmly hide
Then set myself ablaze and glow
And ne’er stop until the darkness died

So often have I been weary
Of looking across the ocean blue
And yet I shall stand tall and burn
‘Coz we all have our share of duties due

    Also, that last paragraph reminded me of, 'The woods are lovely, dark and deep, but I have promises to keep, and miles to go before I sleep...'
