a never ending mystery

there are some old flames
that you
have fond memories of, there's no
hard feelings,
no remorse or regret, just the sweet
reminiscence of
what you had together.
you remember the
fun, the love making, the laughter,
the walks,
the conversation.
the trips you took to the beach
or fair,
to new York.
and then there are a few relationships
that you think
back and there's not a single
good memory to recall,
there's absolutely nothing there,
no fun, no joy, nothing
but sadness and sorrow,
pain.
why you ever with them, will be mystery
until the end of time.
