Love Poems by Teens

Poems about Teen Love

Of all the love poems written, love poems by teens are the most romantic, and passionate. Everything is more intense when you are tasting it for the first time, and that first taste of love is often enough to blow you away. During our teens is when we first encounter the heady feelings of love. The memories of our first kiss, our first date, our first "I love you" are remembered for the rest of our lives. However, for most teenagers, an intimate relationship with a boyfriend or girlfriend is one of the rites of passage. Unfortunately most teens do not yet have the skill and experience to make love last and much pain and heartache ensues. Even so, as they say, practice make perfect, and eventually most people build healthy and loving relationships.

1. I Want To Be...
- By Deshaun Roberts
- Published by Family Friend Poems November 2015
This poem is about wanting someone to be yours, to love and be loved.

Poem About Wanting Someone To Be Yours

I want to be your favorite hello,
And I want to be your hardest goodbye.
I want to be the one who never makes you cry,
The one who puts that sparkle in your eye.

I want to be your favorite hello,
And I want to be your hardest goodbye.
I want to be the one who never makes you cry,
The one who puts that sparkle in your eye.

I want to be the one you trust,
And I want to be the one you can tell all your secrets to.
I want to be the one always by your side,
The one you're stuck to like glue.

I want to be the one who makes you happy,
And I want to be the one who makes you smile.
I want to be the one waiting for you as you're walking down the aisle,
The one to whom you'd say, "For you, I'd walk a thousand miles."

I want to be the one you truly love,
And I want to be the one who fills your heart.
I want to be the one who's always there to hold you in the dark,
The one who loved you from the very start.

2. True Love
- By Moira Thompson
- Published by Family Friend Poems July 2015
You can't know what falling in love feels like until you experience it yourself. "For it was not in my head but deep in my heart."

Poem About First Love

You hear of true love
In movies and books
But not based on
Popularity or looks.

You hear of true love
In movies and books
But not based on
Popularity or looks.

I've searched every corner
Deep in my mind.
But this one little thing
I just could not find.

For it was not in my head
But deep in my heart.
Looking for this
Completely tore me apart.

Then one day I found it,
This thing we call love.
It's something wonderful,
Sent from above.

We stared at each other
As our faces turned red.
Yet nothing was spoken,
Nothing was said.

No words were needed
Because our hearts said it all.
We'd be together forever,
For in love we did fall.

- By Shayna

I still love this boy. And he acts like he loves me, so I always hope that one day I will be able to read him this poem and tell him that I wrote it for him.

Will my love ever end?
Will it ever fade?
Will you finally realize,
I am here to stay?

Will my love ever end?
Will it ever fade?
Will you finally realize,
I am here to stay?

I call you when I need you,
Or when I wanna talk.
I know you'll always be there,
Just to take a walk.

So don't you forget this,
I love you so,
but you need to promise,
your love will always glow.

I'll be the one to call you baby at night

5. In Love With You
- By Danni
- Published by Family Friend Poems April 2009
This is about my boyfriend. We've broken up now and it was hard; it really did tear me up, so I wanted to post this poem as sort of a memory of what we used to be. Enjoy...

You're always in my thoughts.
You're always in my dreams,
And so a life without you would
Just tear away at the seams.

You're always in my thoughts.
You're always in my dreams,
And so a life without you would
Just tear away at the seams.

It's you who keeps me up all night,
The one getting me through the day,
And so it seems to me that there
Is only one thing left to say.

I don't know how to say it,
To make it sound so true,
So I'll say it how I feel it.
I'm completely in love with you.

6. Something About You
- By Hillary Louise
- Published by Family Friend Poems April 2015
Is it love? Or is it lust? All I know is if you feel strongly about a person, don't give up.

Poem About Feeling Strongly For Someone

There is somethin' 'bout those eyes
When you look at me and grin
It seems to me like life just stops
I hope it's not a sin

There is somethin' 'bout those eyes
When you look at me and grin
It seems to me like life just stops
I hope it's not a sin
To think about you all day long
And to see you in my dreams
To feel your arms around me
Protecting me, it seems
When you reach out and grab my hand
Or when your arm is around me
There is nowhere I would rather be
Than right here with you beside me
I can hear you whisper in my ear
I can feel your hand in mine
There is something about the way you speak
That makes me feel just fine
When I think about you
I wish you weren't so far away
So maybe I could get the courage
To look at you and say...
Every time I hear that song
Every time we speak
I miss you like no other can
When you kiss me on the cheek
I feel like nothing can come and hurt me
Like nothing can destroy
This feeling deep inside me
When I think about you, boy
There is just somethin' 'bout the way you say
Sweet dreams to me each night
How you call me darling, toots, and dear
It makes me feel just right
I am always smiling all day long
After I get to see your face
I am always looking forward
To the next time we'll embrace
I love the way you laugh out loud
The way you make me smile
The way you're not afraid to hold my hand
Even if only for a while
I love the way you look at me
And the way you always care
The way you look me in the eyes
And sometimes even stare
I love the way you give me hugs
That sometimes last forever
I really hope this thing we have
Will never grow to sever
There is nowhere I would rather be
Than right here with you beside me

7. Love Is
- By Jessica
- Published by Family Friend Poems February 2015
This is what I see as love in general.

Metaphor Poem About Love

Love is a walk in the rain at night,
Two hands holding onto each other tight;
Love is honey on a pair of lips,
Onto a tender heart it drips;

Love is a walk in the rain at night,
Two hands holding onto each other tight;
Love is honey on a pair of lips,
Onto a tender heart it drips;
Love is a soft and gentle touch;
Your heart, a child's hand may clutch,
Love is a song that stains the air,
Dead or not, it's always there;
Love is both the sun and moon,
Across the sky, like stars, it's strewn;
Love is a tree of abundant fruit,
Giving and serving with every new shoot;
Love is a document, faithful and strong,
To one another, now do you belong;
Love is a river that rages with passion,
Finding ways to calm pools no matter the fashion.

8. I Love You So....
- By Sami Chester
- Published by Family Friend Poems November 2009
I wrote this poem thinking about my 9 month anniversary coming up with my boyfriend. He means the world to me, and I know no matter what happens, we'll always have each other. I hope others can relate to this.

I think about you all the time.
You're always in my head.
I reread every text you send
And remember what you said.

I think about you all the time.
You're always in my head.
I reread every text you send
And remember what you said.

I'm always here for you,
Every hour of the day.
I'll never let you down
Or hurt you in any way.

I love you more than anything.
You're like the air I breathe,
And when I look around,
I know you're all I need.

My sunshine on a cloudy day.
That's one thing that you are,
And even on the darkest nights,
You are my brightest star.

9. I Adore You
- By Julia Aronov
- Published by Family Friend Poems January 2017
I wrote this poem about a boy who saw me in the halls every day for three years. He didn't say a word to me, but one day he messaged me. I wasn't quite sure how to react to the situation, so I just went along with it. I had absolutely no idea that he would end up meaning so much to me. Little did I know, he felt the same way.

I Can't Get You Out Of My Mind

I can't seem to get you out of my mind.
The way you walk, the way you talk, the way your eyes shine.
I can't seem to understand the way you bend your head to listen to every word I say
And the way things between us are never dull or gray.

I can't seem to get you out of my mind.
The way you walk, the way you talk, the way your eyes shine.
I can't seem to understand the way you bend your head to listen to every word I say
And the way things between us are never dull or gray.

I can't seem to get you out of my mind.
The way you listen, the way you react, the way your smile never dies.
I can't seem to explain the fullness that I feel.
Sometimes looking at you, it all seems so surreal.

I can't seem to get you out of my mind.
The way my heart races when I see you, the way I don't want to say goodbye.
I can't seem to fathom why you talk to me as much as you do,
But I love it, and I can honestly say I adore you, too.

10. Love's Never Forgotten
- By Angeline Richards
- Published by Family Friend Poems August 2008
Some people might say because I'm young I don't know about love, but I think that love's the strongest with teenagers. This poem describes a whole relationship I had and how the love will never be forgotten between us.

The true meaning of love, do you truly know?
The love in my eyes, does it still show?

I saw you, then wanted and finally had you.

The true meaning of love, do you truly know?
The love in my eyes, does it still show?

I saw you, then wanted and finally had you.
All so fast, too good to be true.

Every day is the day to God
That I pray that love is never forgotten.

I ask myself, then ask once more,
Will it heal or forever be sore?

You opened my eyes to a lot of new things.
You took me high and gave me wings.

Our love for each other never ends.
Maybe not lovers, but always friends.

We argue, we fight and disagree,
But all it does is hurt you and me.

No matter what you say or what you do,
Forever and always I'll truly love you.

I wrote this poem when I had my first boyfriend, and this is how I felt.

First Love Feelings

I melt when you
smile.
I can't breathe when you
speak.

I melt when you

I can't breathe when you
speak.
Everything else fades away when you
touch me.
I think I might fly when you
kiss me.
All I know when you're around is
I love you.

12. I Hope You Know
- By Kelsey Lane
- Published by Family Friend Poems April 2017
I just wrote this poem for my boyfriend as a reminder that I really do love him, no matter what.

I hope you know
I really do care.
I might not show it often,
Which makes me unfair.

I hope you know
I really do care.
I might not show it often,
Which makes me unfair.

I think you're beautiful
In every way.
I love you a lot,
And for you to stay, I always pray.

I hope you know
When we are mad
I hope and pray
We fix the bad.

It hurts so much
When we fight.
We all have
Our good and bad, all right.

I hope you know
I pray for us
To stay together
And not to fuss.

You're my only,
My first.
I like that I can say
My first was my only.

I hope you know
I've been through a lot.
I know you have, too.
I know that together we can get through.

You make me smile
When I have a bad day,
And you don't have to do much
But say, "Hey."

I hope you know
The reason for this poem
Was to say I love you
And I care in every way.

13. Speechless
- By Bernadette Molina
- Published by Family Friend Poems February 2011
I never worried about love until I met my boyfriend, 100 miles away. This is how love literally takes your breath away. Never give up on what can't be seen.

If I'm anywhere around you, I can't believe
I've got to push you away to think, to breathe
I look at your face, I try to inhale,
I try again and seem to fail.

If I'm anywhere around you, I can't believe
I've got to push you away to think, to breathe
I look at your face, I try to inhale,
I try again and seem to fail.

I can't even think of what I should do
the fact that we're together seems untrue.
You say, "I love you." I look into your eyes.
I take a step back because my heart just flies.

I feel excited as he takes me by the waist.
I can still remember how my heart raced.
I can't think of anything to way
as his lips come my way.

Can't do anything but stand still
as my dreams are fulfilled.
I feel nothing but bliss
as we kiss.

He continues to hold me tight.
Now I can't let him out my sight.
This ecstasy I can't control
as emotions begin to unroll.

I don't feel wrong, I feel completely right
as I continue to see him throughout the night.
It's like something that was meant to be,
like a gift from the heavens, that was sent to me.

14. Nothing Could Measure
- By Whitney
- Published by Family Friend Poems May 2011
I love to write poems. This one I wrote for my amazing boyfriend I have been dating for 4 months now.

No ocean can fathom the depth of my feelings
Nor can the sky above
I love you more than you can imagine
Nothing can measure our love

No ocean can fathom the depth of my feelings
Nor can the sky above
I love you more than you can imagine
Nothing can measure our love

No fire burns brighter than the light you emit
I couldn't compare to lips so sweet
Or the feel of your tongue on my neck
Nothing can measure our heat

No physical wound can closely relate
I know this must sound sane
That if you were to lie, cheat, or leave
Nothing would measure the pain

No ocean can fathom the depth of my feelings
Nor can the sky above
I love you more than you can imagine
Nothing can measure our love

- By Courtney Lynn

I wrote this for a special someone. He is the most special man in my life with the exception of my father and brother. We aren't dating, but I hope that one day we will.

I wanna be the girl who...
You call just to say goodnight
When she's crying, you wrap her in your arms and hold her tight
When she's scared or lonely you tell her "You'll be fine"

I wanna be the girl who...
You call just to say goodnight
When she's crying, you wrap her in your arms and hold her tight
When she's scared or lonely you tell her "You'll be fine"
When she loses sight of you, you gently whisper, "You'll always be mine."

I wanna be the girl who...
Tells you you're her hero every single day
Never gives up, but says, "Baby, let come what may"
Means the world to you too
Proudly says "Yep! That's MY man, Mr. Faithful and True!"

I wanna be the girl who...
Is the only one allowed to kiss your lips.
Listens to your advice and helpful little tips.
Won't ever let anything cause her love for you to bend
Stands by your side faithfully till the end.

This poem is about a guy. I stated dating him in 8th grade, but I have liked him since kindergarten. I hope we last a long time.

It all began at a young age.
You freed me from my tiny cage.
I began to like you more and more.
It was like I opened a whole new door.

I followed my heart,

You make me smile,
And you make my heart drop.

It was like a fairy tale kiss,
When our lips touched.
It'd be something to miss,
Since it was worth so much.

The day that you leave,
I'll sit at home and cry.
But it will also be
The day that I die.

19. Arms Fully Open
- By Ian Mathew
- Published by Family Friend Poems September 2011
It all started as a, "Hi, hello, nice to meet you." From that point on, all seemed perfect. We seemed perfect. I can say she completes me. The words, as I wrote in the poem, came to me one day. I was thinking about her and wrote as it all came to mind--my feelings into words, and I completed the poem.

Poem About My True Love

Clock's ticking slowly,
With minutes floating away.
Minutes to hours. Hours to days.
Day after day,

Clock's ticking slowly,
With minutes floating away.
Minutes to hours. Hours to days.
Day after day,
I hope and I pray,
For this moment to stay.
Stay now. Stay forever.
Stay constant this way.

A beautiful lady
I have right beside me.
Grasping hands so softly.
Perfect life, living calmly.
I step to the future.
Her step comes to follow.
The clock keeps on ticking-
A better tomorrow.
A sky comes to hover.
She falls from above.
With arms fully open,
I catch my true love.

I wrote this poem thinking about my 9 month anniversary coming up with my boyfriend. He means the world to me, and I know no matter what happens, we'll always have each other. I hope others can relate to this.

9. I Adore You

10. Love's Never Forgotten

Some people might say because I'm young I don't know about love, but I think that love's the strongest with teenagers. This poem describes a whole relationship I had and how the love will never be forgotten between us.

11. I Love You

I wrote this poem when I had my first boyfriend, and this is how I felt.

12. I Hope You Know

I just wrote this poem for my boyfriend as a reminder that I really do love him, no matter what.

13. Speechless

I never worried about love until I met my boyfriend, 100 miles away. This is how love literally takes your breath away. Never give up on what can't be seen.

14. Nothing Could Measure

I love to write poems. This one I wrote for my amazing boyfriend I have been dating for 4 months now.

15. I Want To Be The Girl

I wrote this for a special someone. He is the most special man in my life with the exception of my father and brother. We aren't dating, but I hope that one day we will.

16. Love Since Kindergarten

This poem is about a guy. I stated dating him in 8th grade, but I have liked him since kindergarten. I hope we last a long time.

17. Saying I Love You

18. My Fairy Tale

My boyfriend basically means the world to me. We have been dating now for 3 years. (: I love you, baby.

19. Arms Fully Open

20. I Need You

I grew up in Glendale, Arizona. This poem I wrote was about a guy I loved so much. His name was AJ, and he was murdered right in front of me and my other friend, JD, on Thanksgiving in 2007.
