Poems For Couples
A relationship is a connection between two individuals. When a couple falls in love it has become a loving relationship. The relationship has moved from two people simply in contact with each other to two people who can't get enough of each other. A loving relationship may build slowly like a train coming in the distance until when it gets to you it emits a deafening roar. Or you may be two people totally oblivious to the relationship that is developing when suddenly you are hit with the realization that you have fallen in love. People are complex and love develops in different ways.

1. The Two Of Us
What Happened To Our Marriage?I wish I knew what has become of the two of us
We used to talk, now I can't speak anymore
I'm told I speak way too loud
Nothing I have to say ever comes out right
I wish I knew what has become of the two of us
We used to have fun
Now we can't stand to be around one another
All we ever seem to do is fight
I wish I knew what has become of the two of us
We used to laugh
Now all I want to do is cry
You no longer hold me in your arms at night
I wish I knew what has become of the two of us
We spoke of the future quite often
Now it just seems bleak and blind
We no longer have the sunshine that is so bright
I wish I knew what has become of the two of us
We don't seem to see eye to eye
It feels like we move only mechanically
Doesn't look like there's any hope in sight
I wish I knew what has become of the two of us
Nothing seems the same at all
Have we gotten too old to love one another
Has our marriage lost its delight?

2. I Light The Torch
I light a torch and hold it high
It shines so bright it lights the sky
You see the light, you know it's me
You find the strength and set yourself free
From the pain and sorrow you've felt of late
Your heart now softens, gone is the hate
Two becomes one across the miles
We begin our journey to do the trials
Set out for us to complete
Each one we know we can defeat
At the end we know for sure
Standing side by side are hearts are pure
We fought the bad and won hands down
Good prevails and wears the crown -
3. Secrets
Regretting Cheatingdo your secrets rip and roar?
do they tear at you with open claws?
do your secrets dig down deep?
do the make you want to speak?
and also sometimes make you weep?
why'd I do it in the first place when I knew it was along?
I wonder how secrets can be kept for so long?
I wish I could just turn back time,
so that everything will all be fine.
I have never felt this love I feel,
I know that this time it's finally real.
I have been the lucky one,
he'll never know the rotten things I've done,
but what will happen if my secrets finally escape?
will I break down, or die in a lake?
even though now there in the past,
I wonder how long my secrets will last? -

8. Remember When
Remembering And Rekindling LoveRemember when we first did meet,
our hearts rejoiced and skipped a beat.
Remember our first kiss goodnight,
the hug we shared that summer's night.
Remember when we walked the beach
and all our dreams within our reach.
Remember how we used to be
when I had you and you had me.
Remember when we used to talk,
when we held hands and took long walks.
Remember how we spent our days
in warm sunshine and in the rain.
Remember when our one desire
was take a chance and ignite the fire.
Remember the times that made our hearts melt
and all of the passion and desire that we felt.
Remember when you looked at me
and saw the one you love and need.
Remember when you reached for me
and knew that we were meant to be.
Remember when our love was new.

Remember the journey we started together.
Remember our love was always forever.
Remember the promise we made together,
to love and to cherish and to care for each other.

and to make each one happy rather than sad.
Remember when you held our child
and rocked the baby when I grew tired.
Remember the treasured times
like these when love grew into family.
Remember when the world was bright,
when we would laugh and hold on tight.
Remember when our hearts were broken,
when times were tough and words unspoken.
Remember when we grieved our loss
with parents gone and feeling lost.
Remember when our love endured
the pains and heartaches of the world.

What happened to a love so rare?
What happened to the kiss goodnight,
the warm embrace, the love at night?

Can we live our lives together just like it all began,

9. Trials
Overcoming Hardship Makes A Relationship StrongerTimes have been tough, and things have gone wrong,
But the deep love we share has been there all along.
You say why go on, there's nothing that's right,
But we never give up; we continue to fight.
There's a light of love that gives us our sight.
Our hearts may get dark at times, but we know there is light.
We both have situations not fair,
But inside we get through them because of something special we share.
The trials make you aware of the way we feel,
A love that is not fake but so very real.
I know at times that it seems like a raw deal,
But we must get through these trails until we are healed.

There are times when you feel you're at the end of your rope,
But you must go down deep in the pit of your heart.
Let it stop your despair and give a new start.

So when that trial comes, don't ever forget

10. My Love
A Second Chance At LoveFrom the moment our eyes met,
My soul could never forget.
You handed me your number on a scrap piece of paper
And walked away with my heart.
Who would have known
That would be the start?
The start of an on-going journey of you and me.
Time passed, lives changed.
We both went our ways,
But still we found each other
Despite life's maze,
Which leads me to believe maybe this is meant to be.
Our lives entwined,
Forever and always you and me. -
11. I Saw You Today
Memories Of Past LoveWhile walking today as I normally do
I turned around and your face came into view.
My heart beating fast just took my breath away

and how bad I felt when I saw you cry.
Just then someone took you by the hand
it seemed that you were happy and life has treated you grand.
So with one more glance at your beautiful face
I knew that someone else had taken my place.
So memories of you will in my heart forever stay
and I am so thankful I saw you again today.Latest Shared StoryThis poem is exactly like my past. It has really touched my heart.:)

12. Communication
Communicating Is Key To A Successful RelationshipCommunication takes practice,
it's never perfect.
Sometimes not patient,
sometimes not kind,
but you have to say
what's on your mind.
Lend an ear,
listen, not just hear,
to the ones
you love so dear.
Communication is not
a one-way street.
It takes two
to concur this feat.
Communication is hard, you see,
but in the end, it is key
to that great relationship
we all want and need.
Open your heart,
say what's on your mind.
When you are partners for life,
there's nothing to hide. Latest Shared StoryMy partner and I separated a month ago because I won't get off my high horse and take the help handed to me. I wouldn't communicate with her or be able to have a conversation with her. So now...

13. Moon That Moves My Tides
Ending Of A LoveBetter today than I was before,
in this moment with the one whom I adore.
Take the fall, take the risk.
Maybe end up twisted, tangled, worn out, missed.
For the things that we go through behind closed doors,
make me crave you, wanting more.
But in the end it will be just you and I,
as the moon rolls in and brings the tides,
as the sun dances about the sky,
radiant of warmth, beauty, and light.
The cold moon chases the sun,
hoping to catch a glimpse of its beautiful light,
but is forever condemned to dark of night,
giving meaning to the passage of time.
Each giving their best til each day is done,
the moon will never stop craving the warmth of the sun.
Everlasting til death do us part,
For you are the one whom I have devoted my heart.
For I am the moon that moves your tides,
and you will always be the sun that dances across my skies.
Though you may not see me, I am always there,
I cannot deny that I still care. -
14. A Moment Of Truth
Love Forever PoemMy dear love, I wanted to share
My thoughts, my feelings and
What makes me despair.
I want to share with you
What makes me happy what makes me feel blue...
So you can sense that my love is honest and true.
Every day, not a single minute
Passes by without you in it.
Your skin, your voice, your body and your touch.
All of these moments, I miss them so much.
You are so present, so deep in my heart,
And our souls, I just know, will never part,
But circumstance and distance can be so overwhelming
They close doors and create doubt and we start blaming.
There are actions of mine, and I know that for sure,
That feel so wrong, though my intentions are pure.
They are painful and impossible to bear,
And you feel it's all so unfair.
You can't run from yourself;
There is no place to hide.
It just hurts you so deep.
It hurts your heart and your pride.
Then I worry that if I continue to stay.
Will it be wrong and will I be in your way?
I fear that I am not at all what you need
And that this truth will make my heart break and bleed.
Then I sit here and wipe away my tears,
Wishing you could kiss away my fears.
If only you knew how much
I miss and need your embrace and your touch.
I know I can't hide from my thoughts and my fear,
And I know at these times I don't seem near,
But you break down these walls
With the strength of your love,
And then I feel blessed
From God above!
My love for you runs so deep through my veins
That I dream of you, in spite of the pain.
Latest Shared StoryI remember you, my darling, though distance and circumstances have kept us apart. You should know that even in silence love flows. I will never stop dreaming about you, waiting for the day...

15. Do You Know?
Poem About An Abusive RelationshipDo you know how much she loves you?
Do you know how much she cares?
Do you know she would do anything for you?
Hurt you? She wouldn't dare!
Do you know how much
You hurt her each time you raise your fist?
Do you know you broke her spirit,
But alone it's you she'll miss!
Do you know she cares for nothing
Except being by your side?
Whatever she has to take,
She is ready for the ride.
In silence her heart is torn
Because she knows that you won't change,
But hasn't she suffered enough?
Hasn't she endured enough pain?
I blame myself for showing her
That all men can be mean.
She grew up in a home
Where she always heard me scream.
But think about what I'm saying
And understand all that I say.
She loves you beyond understanding;
Please love her the same way.
You truly have an angel,
A gift from God above.
Don't take her heart for granted.
Show her kindness, show her love.

16. Enough Hurting Those Who Love You
Wondering why you have so much hate
Before you see it will be too late
Trying to accept who you are
Just seems far too far
All the pain that you have created
Just sits within you with so much hatred
Hoping you will come to see
What everyone else seems to believe
All I want is for you to realize
You are burning bridges with the one who tries
Open your heart and let me in
Before I just give up let it end
It will be years to fix these issues
I just hope by then I can still trust you
How much more do you think I can take
You won't see until it's too late
Latest Shared StoryYes, it made me cry and get on my knees and pray to keep my relationship with my lady that keeps me in check.

17. Vibrant Colors
Don't Judge MeDon't judge my cover; it's not mine.
I was given this to wear for the duration of my time.
Over time it has become creased, ripped, and worn,
A once perfect canvas the day I was born.
Even the corners are rounded and jaded.
The vibrant colors that once were have now faded.
Deep inside there are pages missing.
I wish that one day you would sit and listen.
Turn these pages slowly and rewind time,
For it's down to you to make up your mind.
Gently close me; be careful of my cover.
Then place me back on the shelf for someone new to discover...

18. Let Me Mend Your Broken Heart
Poem About Being Your EverythingLet me mend your broken heart
and wipe away your tears.
Let me hold you to stop your violent shaking
and warm your freezing hands.
Look me in the eyes
and watch the clouds roll back from your sky,
let me calm your storm.
I will stop the waves of pain
and hold back the floods
and pounding rain of tears.
I will silence the thunder of anger
and stop the constant flash of regret and sorrow.
Let me end the mob of reminders
that tell you you're alone.
Talk to me and end the deafening silence
and let my love end the blinding darkness. -
19. Love
Hope And Faith In Finding True LoveIf you love somebody with your heart, soul, and mind,
Every road to adventure is one of a kind.
Though the road may be rugged and your spirits are high,
Still the sun seems to shine on the loved ones going by.
You hold his hand and he squeezes it tight,
And your heart pounds with your eyes gleaming bright.
And those wonderful emotions you're feeling this time
and the stronger you feel, the harder you climb.
You need to travel on this long winding road,
Feeling your heart is about to explode,
So you try your best and push yourself more.
This new love you have found has lots to explore.
You thread this road with enthusiasm and glide
To win the love of the man by your side,
But don't you falter or go astray.
This man may love you by the end of your day...
Maybe this is a hope, a dream to reshape,
To fulfill your lonely life you want to escape,
But whatever the reason, you must walk head held high.
Don't lose faith; this is worth a try.
Do not lose sight of how love can grow.
When and where...guess...nobody knows,
So keep your head high, never doubt, but believe.
It does not hurt to wear your heart on your sleeve.
So don't lose ground and be as you are.
No doubt you will find your lucky star.
May take awhile like all things do,
But I'm sure love is waiting on this long road for you.

20. Your Love In The Palm Of My Hand
Learning How To Love PoemI hold our love in the palm of my hand as one would a newborn: with awe and delicacy, with softness and protection, with the promise to nurture
