We lost you just two years ago,
A sorrow that still sings
Of all the tears and emptiness
The loss of loved ones brings.
Your day of
birth and burial
Turned out by chance the same,
And so each year when it comes round
We feel both joy and pain.
Our sadness
comes from missing you,
And missing you from love,
And love from all the love in you
That we became part of.
Your love
is still alive in us,
We feel it ever new;
Our mourning's filled with happiness
By memories of you. |
