Fondest Memories

Remember when you sat beside me And then looked up to glance my way? Your eyes, they seemed to look inside me. I knew that very day The way I felt; I can't deny it- That something drew my heart to you: I could not conquer nor defy it Till I knew if yours did too, If what I thought was true. Remember how I came to meet and know you? You asked to see the ring I wore. I held it up so I could show you; A thing I'd never done before. You said yours aggravated you some When playing music all day long; I said I played piano too, some, And we played a little song Which soon turned into two. In time you were my friend forever, We shared our secrets and our plans; And everywhere we went together Friends saw us holding hands. We climbed a mountain in the twilight; The stars winked on for you and me. Your eyes shone brightly in the moonlight- Such a pretty melody. That's all that I could see. Right then I knew that we were meant to be; I meant for you and you for me, To be together for eternity Through storm or through tranquility. I came to realize that I need you Every moment of each day: I chose that milestone to read you Poems written to convey The words I could not say. And now I play a song and sing Because I wear a brand new ring.

Ok Isaiah, I've listened to this already a few times and it's bang on to the music and very beautiful and yet there are poems with absolutely nothing that remotely can be sung with that music. I understood we were to write lyrics for the music not just a poem. I am confused why this wasn't higher. I give you at least a 4 with me.
