2 Years Gone
==============

2 years gone
Since you left
A life of pain

2 years gone
Since parting;
2 years ago today.

You are certainly missed;
Your smile genuine and true --
It still hurts to think about it
But we still love you.

The days are still long
And nights sometimes longer --
While wondering if you're really out there;
Still hating life's robber.

Disease took you years before
The night time took you sunder;
Tonight the candle burns for you,
As you sleep forever under.
