nothing good comes to mind

where once i couldn't
get you out
of my mind,
i now have
to force myself to remember
you.
nothing good
or kind
returns.
no act of love, no
kiss.
no meal shared, no memory
of joy arises.
it's strange how
our brains return
so often
to the scene of a crime,
staring at the scar
now healed
in time.
