These are some of my first compositions, pretty bare. The first was made around 2008 and the second around 2007, the latter with two friends tagging along on what beats and sounds to put in there.
Since I had no midi controller until 2014, most compositions were done either from mind and drawing notes with the mouse or sometimes playing the notes on Reason's perpendicular keyboard with the mouse, as only Fruity Loops (later FL Studio) had the option to use the PC keyboard at that time. I didn't start these ones on the classical guitar.

My beginning:
dragon (original): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n-wiraXv-Jc
dragon (2nd) [original]: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VL7qflazmjY
dragon (3rd) [original]: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0RDUlhH2BcY&feature=youtu.be
It's pretty much my first ever finished composition, made around 2006. It has rock influences (tried mimicking an electric guitar) since I was mostly listening to rock genres from a young age. I also experimented with minors and majors in this one. Overall, quite synth/artificial sounding but I was OK with it back then albeit generally melancholic.
I remember getting some DragonHeart movie (Draco character) vibes when making it, so it's probably the reason it ended up named like that.
As I listened to more types of music more and more and got not only accustomed but inspired, I developed a fancy to recreate my own compositions in various ways. This helped a lot at combining genres. Thus the second and third versions for dragon were born (around 2008). The latter is more of a template than actual music though.
YouTube has removed the second version considering it spam. But the issue was solved the next day after appealing. Good and swift work, thanks. Let's hope it doesn't happen again with the third one :D

Jumping romance:
heartbeat (original): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9jsLmd0ZjLQ&feature=youtu.be
Begun this one sometime between 2006-2007 and it had a different structure, more straightforward, linear. Around 2009 it got shaped as others of mine, everything started on classical guitar of course.
My friends back then had a blast with the original version. Not sure why though since it's pretty melancholic sounding. Anyways, it's been remastered over the years until around 2016, I think, when I did a sort of whole work sound equalization and whatnot.
Oh yeah, and back then I was a bit in love, the composition had some lyrics made for it but nah, better without any.

March sings:

Started this one way back around 2007. Never got to finish it until March of 2019 because it was painful to play around with the tempo and structure at the time. I added another part to it (first on guitar as usual) sometime around last year or so.
