The poem used here which was published earlier was change.
----------------------------------------------------->
"Kringggggggggggggggggggggggggggg." Tunog ng school bell. Hudyat ng pagsisimula ng pasukan.
Dito sa Academy, kaming mga guro ay nag-i-stay lang sa mga designated classrooms namin. Ang mga students, sila ang nagtratansfer from one schedule and subject to another. Di ba nasabi ko sa inyo na ako ang tinaguriang Shakespeare ng paaralan kasi pagnandito ka sa classroom ko, nawawala ka sa totoong munda at dinadala ka nito sa mundo ng mayamang sining na makukulay na pagsasawika ng damdamin at kaisipan- ang panitikan o sa ingles ay LITERATURE.
"Who among you here can tell me, what is the oldest theme in literature? Anyone?" Ibang klase ano? Ni wala pang greetings na goodmorning, tanong agad.
"Sir." Pagtataas ng kamay ni Topher. Akalain mong nandito tong isang to sa first period ko. "The oldest theme in literature is LOVE."
"Correct, the oldest theme is love. Poets, novelists, playwrights, and all writers and authors of this century and the past have immortalized the theme of love. It is the theme long been talked but until now remains to be a central topic of human expression. Why is that so? Can anyone enlighten the class of the very reason?"
Nagpataas ng kamay si Syd. "Love play the central theme among majority of the literature because everybody relates to it and everybody experiences how it is to love."
"Have you experience it yourself, Mr. Symond?" I teased him with a playful smile.
"Yes, Sir." May pagmamayabang niyang sagot.
"Thus, because all of us, may it be romantic, filial or just friendship, all of these is contained in a word, LOVE."
"I am Prof. Stephen Sean E. Zaide, your language and literature teacher this school year. We will attempt to discover the majestic path towards aesthetic beauty of the written and spoken literature and in the process absorb their meaning. Welcome to English 104, the World Literature."
"As your introductory activity this morning, we shall attempt to dissect the meaning and expression of SONNET 116 by Sir William Shakespeare.
"Let me not to the marriage of true minds
Admit impediments. Love is not love
Which alters when it alteration finds,
Or bends with the remover to remove:
O no; it is an ever-fixed mark,
That looks on tempests, and is never shaken;
It is the star to every wandering bark,
Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken.
Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks
Within his bending sickle's compass come;
Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,
But bears it out even to the edge of doom.
If this be error and upon me proved,
I never writ, nor no man ever loved. "

Author's Note
I do not want to write in order to have audiences. I want to write in order to make my message across. I wish to present a story wherein young people should not only ready because it is "kilig" but i want to write in order for them to generally learn. Hopefully, you will enjoy the next chapters as we go on with the story
