Short Sweet Love Poems

A love poem will not always be long and flowery. Sometimes what you need to say can be very short. In fact it may be the fact that the poem is short that makes it special. Its short length may show that you put the time and effort in to make every word count. You considered carefully every word choice. Every word choice has a reason behind it. A short poem can be the ultimate act of romance when it is given the time and effort that it deserves.

  3. 2. Love So Amazing

    I am a romantic at heart. My friend became my lover! We share a love that is so amazing and so deep that just the thought of my husband, his smile, his walk, the way he looks at me, makes me fall in love with him all over again!



    My love for you is like the raging sea,
    So powerful and deep it will forever be.
    Through storm, wind, and heavy rain,
    It will withstand every pain.

    This is just a poem I felt moved to write about a girl, and that's about it.

  6. 4. I Love You

    Before I met my boyfriend, I was very depressed, felt alone, and didn't know where I belonged in the world. When he came into my life, I finally felt wanted and cared for, and I wanted him to know how much he means to me. I just want him to understand that without him I probably wouldn't be living to write this right now.

  12. 10. Make Me Feel

    These past few months I've felt numb. Felt like I didn't know how to love or even feel anger. Everything became so nonchalant. I gave up on love, but I recently found the one who has made me the happiest female alive. I'm blessed.
