Mine Alone

Today was our day, yours and mine;
It had been yours for quite some time.
Then I arrived, a gift for you;
But the gift of life you gave was true.
Year after year we’d celebrate;
Sometimes early; sometimes late.
But never did this day go by
Sans birthday wishes, you and I.
Until this year, now mine alone,
As you're not here; forever gone.
