For Old Times' Sake

for old times' sake

is such a pretty sentiment

like

let's do it

for the love

that used to be here

for the memories that used to be young

let's do it for the time

when the little things meant i love you

for the time when the things we forgot

were the things we thought we would always remember

so for old times' sake

could we sit under the old fig tree

one last time

holding hands as we laughed

as if there was nothing in the world

except you and me

for old times' sake

could we go and walk in the bamboo forest

skipping in the lowlight of the day

half shadowed by the trees

that are still, somehow, green

for old times' sake

could we—

remember those nameless

beautiful

tiny

acts

of

love
