Thinking about the
"Good ol' days"

Creeps up
Slowly
Only announcing its arrival

Thinking so much about back then

Maybe not as frequently
But I hope you've thought of them

And those nights
Those long nights
Playing game after game
It was almost always mario kart
Race after race
Man,
Can you believe we thought those graphics were actually pretty good?
I miss those nights
We'd eat way too much pie and ice cream
And fall asleep not on the couch
But on the floor next to it
The boxy tv still flickering with light
Telling us how poorly we did on Rainbow Road
