I think of you, I pray for you,
Your birthday is coming up soon
I still want to call you
I'm reminded of you by the simplest tune
In life we didn't always see eye to eye
And for that I have a lot to answer for
But at the end we were so close
And I thank God for opening that door
They say when one door closes another opens
Well, hers closed and I'm still here
Waiting for the next door to open
I feel like my path is still unclear

Thanks CHRIS for your riposte ~ sorry it was a little concise. I meant to comment in the elegant structure of your poem which complemented the Structure ! Balanced quatrains with a consistent (xaxa xbxb etc) rhyme pattern ! I was intrigued by the final line ~
