Those conditions above then make literature born. It is believed that literature born due to the lack of human in expressing themselves (Semi, 2012). Then, since the time of the literature is born, it could bring positive effect to human's life in terms of expressing their thoughts, ideas, and feelings. According to Perrine (1982), fiction, drama, and also poetry are three things which belong to kinds of literature's work. Furthermore, between these three kinds of literature's work, the poetry is always interesting to be discussed. It is because poetry does not always have to be read, but it also can be sung.

LITERATURE REVIEW Definition of Figurative Language
According to Kennedy (1979) as cited by Listiani (2015), figurative language is defined as the figure of speech which is used in a language. The figure of speech that is meant here is the art of saying utterance other than its literal meaning. This figure of speech is used by the speaker or writer in order to avoid the use of denotation words.
It is believed that figurative language could convey meaning which cannot be expressed exactly any other way. It could convey meaning in a great shorter time because it actualizes the meaning in imagery instead of expressing it abstractly (Potter, 1967) as cited by (Listiani, 2015). Furthermore, Perrine (1982) also stated that figurative language is defined as the way in which extra dimensions are added to the language. In a short definition figurative language is a different way of saying something other than its ordinary way to make the language sounds more beautiful.
Commonly the figurative language can be found in many kinds of literature's works like poetry, prose fiction, and also non-fiction. People who are interested in literature's subject use figurative language in order to make the result of their literature's work sounds more beautiful on the hearer. Furthermore, this chapter will discuss about the types of figurative language. They are allusion, allegory, hyperbole, irony, litotes, synecdoche, simile, metaphor, personification, metonymy, symbol, paradox, and oxymoron.
According to Perrine (1982), allusion is defined as the way to strengthen the idea of one's work with the idea of another work. Or in briefly, it can be said that allusion is an indirect reference to a person, place, thing or even idea of historical and cultural. However, the thing in which a person is referred to does not describe in detail. It only consists of comment, and the one who uses this kind of figurative language expects that the reader has enough knowledge so that she or he could grasp the meaning of this figurative language. For example: "Don't act like Romeo in front of her!" "Romeo" is a reference to William Shakespeare's literature work "Romeo and Juliet". The character of Romeo represents a passionate lover of Juliet. Therefore, the speaker who used this kind of figurative language expects that the one who she/he speaks to would stop acting like a passionate lover in front of somebody.
Allegory is defined as a figure of speech which is used to disguise meaning rather than reveal it, or disguise it from somebody while revealing to others (Perrine, 1982). For example: "George Orwell's Animal Farm." It is one of the most famous literature's allegories. It tells about group of farm animals who rise up, kick out the humans, and try to run the farm themselves. The hidden story behind this figurative language is about the Russian revolution.
According to Arp (2011) as cited by Siallagan, Manurung, & Sinaga (2017), hyperbole is defined as "simply exaggeration, but exaggeration in the service of truth". It means that the speaker who uses this kind of figurative language does not really mean the utterance that he or she is saying, but the speaker is only overstating their statement. For example: "The girl was dying to get a new school uniform." The word "dying" might refers to the condition in which the girl seemed already gave up in finding the school uniform for herself.
"The weather is so hot! It feels like I'm on fire." The phrase "I'm on fire" represents to the condition in which the speaker could not withstand the heat, so she/he wanted to express the feeling by using this figurative language. According to McArthur (1996) as cited by Ain (2013), irony is defined as the usual meaning which contradicts to the words that have implication. In briefly, it can be concluded that irony represents the difference between the things that might be expected to happen to the thing which actually occurs. There are three types of irony; verbal, dramatic, and situational. For example: "Students, you all are so discipline because you come to school and 9.00 o'clock." The word "discipline" represents to the situation in which the students were actually late because they came to school at 9.00 o'clock meanwhile the lesson started at 7.30 am.
Litotes is defined as the way in which a speaker uses double negatives or even positive statement which is expressed by negating its opposite expressions in order to make someone's remarks forceful (Hornby, 2000). For example: "She is not a beauty queen." The phrase "beauty queen" here used in order to represent that "she" was actually an ugly girl. Therefore, in order to avoid rough words the phrase "beauty queen" then chosen by the speaker.
According to Kennedy (1979) as cited by Listiani (2015), synecdoche is a kind of figurative language in which a part of something is used to represent the whole or the whole is used to represent a part. For example: "I won't let strangers come under my roof." The word "roof" represents to the speaker's house in which the speaker forbids strangers to come to his/her house.
Simile is defined as the kind of figurative speech which is used to make comparison between two different things by using the word; like, as, than, similar to, resembles, or even seems (Perrine, 1982). For example: "My dad is as brave as lion." "Lion" is known as the king of the jungle who is really brave, and tough. So "lion" was chosen by the speaker in order to make a comparison to represent that the speaker's dad is as brave and tough as a lion.
"Her heart is as hard as a stone." "As hard as a rock" is used to represent that the one that the speaker's talking about is a person who is very cold, mean and also cruel to others.
According to Perrine (1982), metaphor is defined as the kind of figurative speech which is used as a means of comparing something which are essentially unlike without using the words "like", "as", "similar to" in which these words are used in simile. For example: "She is a pig." "Pig" is known as an animal that loves to eat, sleep, has a lazy character and also big body. Therefore, the speaker said "she is a pig" instead of "she is as lazy as a pig" in order to represent that this "girl or woman" is totally a pig because this "woman or girl's" activities were only eating and sleeping so it makes this "woman" has a big body.
Personification is defined as a figure of speech in which the human's attributes are given to an animal, an object, or even concept. In another way it can be said that personification is a way in which the readers of the literature's work are asked to visualize the literal term in human form (Arp, 2011) as cited by (Siallagan, Manurung, & Sinaga, 2017). For example: "The skyscraper was so high that it seemed to kiss the sky." Here, it is really impossible that the skyscraper could kiss the sky. However, the skyscraper is given the attributes of human by adding the phrase "kiss the sky" in order to describe that the skyscraper is truly high.
According to Arp (2011) as cited by Siallagan, Manurung, & Sinaga (2017), metonymy is the kind of figurative language in which the name of an object is replaced by another which has association with it. For example: Lingua Scientia| 49 "The white house will be announcing the decision at 12 pm." "White house" refers to the place where the President of The United State of America stays.
Symbol is defined as an object or something else that could reflect something beyond the literal meaning (Divyani, 2004) as cited by Isa, Ali, Fadzillah, & Kasbon (2017) For example: "The darkness." It might represent a symbol of evil, fear or even loneliness.
Paradox is defined as the figure of speech in which a statement appears to be contradictory, but may include hidden truth (Kennedy, 1979) as cited by (Listiani, 2015). Or in briefly, it can be stated that paradox contains statement which has two opposite facts, but both the facts may be true. For example: "I close my eyes so I can see (Fugazi, Shut the Door)" This is a piece of song lyrics by Fugazi entitled Shut the Door. Actually, the word "see" in this lyric was not used literally. Meanwhile, it is used figuratively in order to convey that by closing the eyes, this someone wants to "see" the truths.
According to Murthy (2003) as cited by Listiani (2015), oxymoron is defined as the figure of speech in which two opposite ideas are combined to create an effect. Commonly in oxymoron, an adjective will be combined with a noun to create contrasting meanings. For example: "The comedian was seriously funny." "Seriously funny" is the phrase that is combined to create an effect. Therefore, the phrase "seriously funny" is used to illustrate that the comedian could make the audience laughing out loud.
"This is a genuine imitation of Rolex watch." "Genuine imitation" is the phrase that is combined to create an effect. Therefore, the phrase "genuine imitation" is used to represent that the watch does not look like an imitation watch, but it looks like the real "Rolex" watch.

Uses of Figurative language
There must be certain reasons why figurative language is used in many kinds of literature's work like poetry, prose fiction, or even non-fiction. It is because in accordance to its definition in the above description that figurative language is defined as a different way of saying something other than its ordinary way to make the language sounds more beautiful (Perrine, 1982). Instead of making the language sounds more beautiful, there are also other reasons why figurative language is used in many literature's works; it is because figurative language affords imaginative pleasure, it is a way of bringing additional imagery into verse, and it is a way of conveying attitudes along with information. According to Encyclopedia Americana (1995) as cited by Listiani (2015), there are also other purposes of why figure of speech is used or found in many kinds of literature work; "to clarify meaning, to provide clear example, to stimulate emotions, and deepening the range of perception response to the world of objects and ideas."

It employs technique of seeking, collecting, and analyzing the data instead of calculating the data.
Furthermore, according to Ary, Jacobs, Razavieh, & Sorensen (2006) as cited by Ain (2013) "Qualitative studies are a distinctive type of research in education and the social sciences that can produce vivid and richly detailed accounts of human experience. These studies are based on social reality from that which underlies the standard quantitative approach to the study of education." One chooses a qualitative design, because it is the appropriate method for investigating the problem.
