Divorce when you can not find your spouse

I am trying to divorce someone who I have been seperated from for approximatley two years. I can not find a current address, or her. Is there a form that I can use to recieve a divorce with out her presence. If so is this form avaiable to down load, or at a local library, so I can file it myself?
