Mystery of Love
I feel now a new and strange sensation
A feeling that I can't explain nor share
She's in my dreams and imagination
People may tease me but I'll never care
Because I can always do my best
Like I'm hunting for a hidden treasure
To fascinate her and not to impress
It is my sincere and true love, for sure
- This is an example of Ottava Rima.

Hate Is Like A Sandstorm (Love Is Like A Heatwave Revision)
Whenever I feel bad
Or maybe so sad
My heart is pumpin'
And also raging
Could it be a devil inside
Or is it whispering from side to side
Hate is like a sandstorm
It blinds your eyes
It also changes your form
At the same time as you cry
But you should heal your heart
Before evil domination starts
Hate is like a sandstorm
Whenever you hear their names
And they treat you the same
Like how they humiliate you
And made you bluer than blue

Me, As the Poet of the Night
The azure sky starts to darken
Stars dominate the clouds in the sky
Creatures of night are awoken
By the moon shining up so high
Troubles of the city slows down
And silence and peace of night reigns
Wind blows silently in the town
And it calms my heart and my brain
And my dreams now start to wander
As I walk on the moonlit road
Where my tears fall one after another
Like how the silent river flowed
But it's only now I realized
That after the trials, peace is my prize
- This is my example of Shakespearean Sonnet. Hope you liked it.

Most Special Bond of All
Living in a special place called home
The smallest unit of society known
These are the definitions of family alone
But it is deeper than what is already known
To a group of people, it is a special bond
And they always give each other a helping hand
In a family, true love can always be found
That makes them sturdy as stone when together they stand
In times of troubles when you are alone
And you’re searching for someone to lean on
Do not think of any other option
Except for your kin that’s with you all along
But there’s always a storm after the calm
A lot of trials and challenges still come
That you can defeat and even overcome
If your family will only act as one

One of the essentials to improve our nation
And everyone believes that the magic of education
Can change our country as well as other regions
People visualizes it as a treasure
But cannot be stolen b y anyone for sure
Though can be obtained of your heart is pure
And determined to learn and be nurtured
Aside from bringing knowledge to all

Brings a colorful and bright tomorrow
And makes everybody learn as they grow
