Still Like It Was Yesterday

My brothers were building a deck with a supervision of someone And when they finished, I thought it was the most beautiful deck I've ever seen The wood looked so nice And the woodwork and the shape I just loved it Until they tore it down And built another one later since they now know the know-how I never did like the 2nd deck It just doesn't look the same doesn't feel the same For a long time I would never know why they did that I could never understand it Their reason? It looked old In my mind it still looked the same as I haven't been home for a long time And I am still wanting to bring the old one back So that is what it is in our mind If you love someone or something It never goes old in your mind You still love it no matter what as time goes on That's why it matters to treasure things you love as it occupies a piece of your memory You usually don't remember a lot of things - only things that stand out in your mind Take good care of that treasure trove You don't want to lose it Ahh what do I do if I lose it? I would go nuts lol That deck is still in my heart Would my brothers tear it down if they had known it? Yeah lol But I may stop them Kudos
