There are so many kinds of literature, from novels, to short stories, to poems, to journals. Which form(s) do you like the best?

Haha, it's so hard for me to choose the best because I like all literature forms. Hmm, I think I like songs the best because you can see beauty in both their music and lyrics. Just don't go talking to me about today's music because most of them are crap now. I'm pertaining to the 70s and 80s, and my own songs. Lol. 
Anyway, poems and novels come next on my list.

Hold it, you can consider music lyrics or songs as literature form? I thought literature refers to something written.

Yeah, lyrics are something written too, right? I think songs are poems put into music - words given melody and rhythm - so I consider it literature as well.

Cool. And yeah, there are also lyrical poetry which are meant to be sung - like sonnets, odes, and ballads. They're not much popular today, but there are a lot of them during Shakespeare's time, I think. I'm not into those kinds of songs, though. Haha.

From what I learned in high school, sonnetes/odes/ballads are all actually written, part of classic poems. What differs them is the number of lines and rhymes, if I remember it correctly.

True, but they're actually meant to be sung. We even tried to put some contemporary melodies to them before and it's easy because they have perfect time measures like 3/4, and 4/4.
