you - another bump

you
came again to my memory
like a regret that
I thought I was finished
beating myself with
and that old familiar ache
    that I never let
    grow into a contempt
    that would have poisoned
    any love I once felt
blows through me
as if the regrets have formed
into the cold front blowing through
here today
and I've nothing to ward off
the impending chill
