Poetry…The Language of Love
What is a love poem?
Poetry is all about intent. A love poem expresses your heart’s deepest sentiments- what one feels but doesn’t always say to their dear one.
A love poem is composed of endearments, imagery, symbolism, and nostalgia- words that invoke emotion and capture the essence of your love. Expressing your feelings in a poem to your loved one could greatly impact your communication. It might bring you closer together.
Love poems make your sweetheart feel special and can crank up the intimacy in your relationship. Show your love! Let your heart do the talking, and your lover will swoon!
What type of poem is used for love?
The most important part of writing a love poem is effectively communicating your love. Sonnets and free verse are commonly used to write love poems.
Sonnet is structured in 14 lines, 3 quadrants alternating rhyme pattern, and a couplet (2 lines that rhyme) at the end. While the free verse is just as it sounds- it’s open. With no metrical rhyme pattern or structural rules, this style flows more like natural speech.
No matter how you craft your love poem, metaphors and similes can add creative flair! Be expressive and emotive! Tell a story and share your feelings! Add a bit of artistic quality to it, and that’s poetry!
What is a short love poem?
A summary of your love for her can be captured in a short poem. Short love poems are brief, typically 15 lines or less. Think of greeting cards- short, sweet, direct, yet eloquently convey a message.
A little goes a long way! Just make good use of your wording in a short love poem. Your words should paint a picture and invoke emotion. Your poetry is an art- the quill of your heart!
Please take a look at some of these love poems for inspiration:
Smitten
Each day I rejoice
Just to hear your voice
You make me smile
More than I have in a while
I look forward to our dates
In fact, I can hardly wait
To see your lovely face
Feel your warm embrace
To consume
The scent of your perfume
I can say you drive me wild
But that’d be putting it mild
By the lovebug, I’ve been bitten
You are amazing, I am smitten
Serendipity
Our eyes met, and we just clicked
At that moment, I could not predict
The effect you would have on me
It was serendipity
A love that would grow bigger and bigger
Who would’ve figured
That we’d end up together
For all these years
Through storms and sunny weather
Smiles and tears
I am lucky to have found you
For everything you are and everything you do
You make life better
So I write you this letter
To let know you’re beyond great
And darling, our love was fate
Treasure of a Lifetime
The first time I looked into her bright beautiful eyes
I was absolutely hypnotized
She carried herself with such grace
Always wore a smile on her face
Kind and sweet
This girl, I had to meet
I asked her to meet me for dinner
When she said yes, I felt like a gold champion winner
I was over the moon, elated
I got to the restaurant early and waited
She glided in like a queen
The prettiest girl I’d ever seen
The girl of my dreams
Was there to meet me
We had a lovely night
And to my delight
There were many more
Wonderful dates in store
Until one day I’d ask her to marry me
She’d tearfully agree
To be my bride and I, her groom
Together, we would make a life
As husband and wife
I happily sigh
Thinking about the years gone by
Life has been grand with her by my side
She’s my best friend, to whom I can confide
She holds my hand
Understands
And always there
Showing me she cares
Still as beautiful as ever
Her love I will always treasure
It’s You I Love
Soft hair, smooth skin
Where do I even begin
To describe your beauty
Not only on the outside but within
Your gentle voice, your kind heart
Is not even a start
To your magnificence or
The radiant joy that you impart
It’s physical, mental, and emotional attraction
Passionate energetic transaction
You are my angel sent from above
There’s no one else for me- it’s you I love
The One I Live For
Do you know how much I love you
Do I tell you near enough
Or better yet, do I show you
When life is getting rough
Through the storms and high winds
Is where my loyalty begins
I’ll stand right by your side
Through the tests of any tide
Please know that you’re the one
My love, who I adore
You’re my stars, moon, and sun
You’re the one I live for
I love you, I love all of you
Through and through
And forever I will continue
To always, always love you
Side By Side
Living life with you by my side
Gives me strength every day
More gratitude than I can convey
No reason to hide
For this love, I can’t deny
Love is a gift in every season
You give me purpose and reason
On this rock, you and I will stand high
Every day and every night
I’ll hold you close
I’ll love you the most
Nothing’s ever been so right
You and I
Forever, side by side
I Fell In Love With Her Smile
Hair like lockets of gold
Face like an angel
She was a stranger
With a broad, beautiful smile
And a perfume that drove me wild
Each day I would see her on the train
Her eyes meticulously gazed over the morning newspaper
I watched her read; her face expressionless, page after page
She was just passing the time
I decided to move in closer
Sat in the seat across from the beautiful stranger
Side-glanced smiled and asked her what she was reading
She hesitated, but then… she put down her paper and turned to me
I’ll never forget it- she smiled that lovely big bright smile
And that was it for me; I was head over heels in love
My World
I put you high up on a pedestal
I hold you in the highest regards
My lover, my lady, my life
My world vibrates because of you
With you, the stars shine brighter
You light up my life
You bring a smile to my face
My world vibrates because of you
You’re precious in my heart
I hold you oh so dear
My lover, my lady, my life
My world vibrates because of you
Holding You Close
My eyes trace
Your beautiful face
Down your bare soft shoulders
As the night grows colder
I snuggle you closely
Mostly
To consume
The sweet scent of your perfume
Holding you close
Is the most
At home, I will ever feel
You have to know; my love is real
Fate
My lady, so fair
Eyes so bright
Beauty beyond compare
You are my heart’s delight
The way you walk
Swaying your hips
The sweet way you talk
Those lustrous lips
You are a ten
A goddess so divine
Please tell me when
You’ll agree to be mine
For you, I will wait
We both know our love is the fate
