I wrote this poem a couple days ago, but am stuck on what to name it. I was wondering if you good people could help me out.
Warning: This is a still a work in progress and is a bit rough in places.

I leave today, no man may I be,
trying not to remember what you promised of me.
And I praise the lord as I call your name.
Tears run down my face as a board this train.
But you will never meet, who I said I will be
In time I would grow, and you, learn to see.

The engine belows, beginning to cruise.
Bowing my head unto an empty moon.
Wind howls by, pictures start to fade,
passing by the premises I shouldn't have made.
I throw my hands up, it's over now,
But I won't take my leave, I won't take my bow.
Everybody falls, and we all land somewhere.

Wow, that is a really cool poem, very well written! :)

As for a title... how about:

 "Goodbye from a Train"
"Leaving on a Train"
"Simply Goodbye"
"Me, a Tear"

... Well I'm not sure what to title this. Why not call it "Untitled 2008"? :P

Pretty good stuff.

Many authors never gave a title to their poems and later editors use just the first line as the title.

Or, you could always title it something completely irrelevant. I like doing that, but I'm weird. :D

It sounds to me like it could use something simple, like "Tracks".

I kinda like that, actually.

Ok, the poem is to be titled, "Dear Perrin."

This was originally a song for the love I lost, and I should name it so.
Everybody falls, and we all land somewhere.
