Topic of Choice
I have a lot of homework tonight because tomorrow is the end of the first quarter. Most of my teacher cram a lot of tests and assignments into the last quarter so that there is more composition to their quarter 1 grades. I find this annoying because for weeks we won't do very much in our classes and then finally we will have a lot of work to do in a small time frame. But I'm almost done with everything now, and after Friday I can finally relax because all my work will be done and then I'll be good until end of quarter 2!
Love is like a ...
Maria
How long can you keep up that face?
How many times tonight will your lips unfurl to a smile?
How can you work in this place concealing such grace?
How would you like to leave with me... and see the world for a while?
Hang up your apron and baggy jeans for this little number,
Come dance with me through the night until morning light,
Laughing and singing through streets wrapt in slumber,
Your soft ebony eyes reflecting an Italian moon, so magnificently bright.
Let me take your hand, oh this night we set sail,
On a thrilling journey to a remote place called love,
Making memories and writing our own midnight tale,
A side by side silhouette, diamond-set dark velvet above.
Without even trying, you emit beauty, passion and elegance,
From your slender model figure to your lush flowing hair,
Dancing in the wind, my heart shocked by your electric radiance,
The breath-taking waitress, mi manchi tanto Maria.

The author uses many metaphors to describe things about his girlfriend. For example, one line says "your soft ebony eyes, reflecting an Italian moon." This metaphor is comparing her eyes to a moon to emphasize how bright and beautiful they are. The author uses other metaphors like this to convey his theme.

Love Poem
LOVE
Love is like water
Pure and clear
Everyone needs it
At times
It is needed for life
It cleanses your body
Your mind
And your heart
Other times
It can be deadly
Water can drown you
Water can burn you
Love can hurt you
In similar ways
