1. Just Like The Moon

Just like the moon is bright
You become what is of light.
You came to show me to love right
These are moments I will always write.

Just like the moon you rule with ease
Bringing me freedom, love and peace
And a heart with emotions that never cease.
I love how we love and also tease.

Just like the moon the white ruler and Queen
I will love you and be your King
I swear by the finger with the ring
My love has just my heart for you to sing.

2. A Million Smiles

I hear myself with the shelling of the night
Break into a million smile
Thinking and sinking into ocean thoughts
You as a life jacket, you as a thought.

Whenever the wind breaks on my roof
It brings your scent and kisses like rain
It blows whispers of your name as my sweetness
So I find a reason to live above the clouds

No matter what thick blackness covers my room
My heart is full of light for you
Showing me moons and stars of you.
Know tonight’s, you will be the sun.

3. This Is Not The End

We started with fresh mornings
Streaming through our lips
We touched forth our hearts
And laid our words with the sun.
We may have called today by its name
When goodbye found our ways
Know it is not the end
For my heart still beats for you.
Starlight hold these skies
But not my valediction, at least until rain comes.
So while the night covers this day
Now, this is not the end. I love you all night.

4. You Are A Startled Star

I want to be your blanket
Covering the troubles from you
Touching your fears like the bed
Gossiping with the sheets
Echoes of your heart.
I want to be your light
Guiding you through the night
Telling you I exist to chase your fears away
To right your wrong turns
To open your heart and let the love into mine.
I want to be your sound
Whispering past your ears, fixing words into your soul
Saying love, love, love. I want to be your sweet night love.

5. Reminiscent Nights

It is that time again
Where the cricket wakes to its morning
And the butterflies slowly disappear.
It is that time again
Where the clouds become same with darkness
And the waters warm with my love.
It is that time again
When my arms longs for you
My lips are hungry to feed into yours
It is that time again
When my love grows deeper
To break boundaries
It is that time again
When my memories remember only you
When my thoughts are with a sun of you
It is that time again
When I say what I always say
But from the heart.
I love you baby even tonight.

6. When The Whole World Sleeps

During the dark time of the day
I know it is night for me to find alone
To think of the kisses of the day
To wish to be held by this time.
When the world sleeps, you come in my dreams
Always showing the deep part of your heart
Telling of love
Whispering of laughter.
I want our shadows to feel each other
Let their weight be felt like you’re here
Come to me so we make magic happen
As I call you my girl
The light of my world.

7. Dusk

As the night skies keep the stars in sigh
My soul has become with yours a romantic light
To think of you is a curtain in my wind
When on my mind is you I find.
To be with you is always a desire
So I love and feel as I try to retire.
The moon is just a phase to rid me your face
I know its radiance will heal this solace.
The easiness of this feeling makes me smile
And how I want this to last longer than a while.
This cool breeze brings thoughts so lovely
Knitted in my mind to look beautiful.
To this night that homes my silent night
Know that I want you to have a goodnight.

8. When Night Finds Us

In the midst of all we sought
In love or sweetness.
I didn’t think twice about you
You became a wonderful story
That the night aches to tell
With sweet candles or fun
Love notes dispersed
I like the water that holds us tight
So we flow in this love
Emotions outpoured and fears found
We are imperfect to live but flawlessly in love.
When night finds us
Let us be wrapped tight in each other’s arms.
Let us love willingly.

9. The Warmness Of The Night

I have tried to express my feelings
In the waking of the day.
I have caressed your face in the heat of today,
Most times at night I feel the flutter of my heart.
I have always shone you how I feel
It is like how proud the moon sits for the skies
And the stars are in the splendor of my emotions
Tickling the skies
And showering light to those finding the dark.

I always made a beautiful decision
Of making a life with you,
No stutters find my heart
No matter the blackness of the night.
Just so this night
Know it is not different from what I have always said
I will love you in the morning or at night.
I will let your emotions show me the light.

10. To The Glowing Moon

I have given my whispers to the wind
To wish you a good night with love.
I miss the beginning of today
When our lips talked with one another.

To the glowing moon
I see a reflection of your beauty
A soft teary eye hosts your image
And wish my hands would touch you.

To the glowing moon
I say it how my heart prays for it
For your arms to envelope into mine.
For our hearts to beat and lie side by side.

Good night poems for her

11. You are only mine

Mine forever, that’s true.
You and no other, that too.
I don’t mind giving my everything to you.
To secure and protect you, girl.
You are always on my mind.
Even when there’s no cloud left in the night.
Oh girl! You are only mine.
Goodnight, my baby.

12. Goodnight Kisses

You are my sunshine
You are my moonlight
The one that lights up my beaten-up body.
That the stars in your eyes
Are forever a guide
To my wandering heart.
If you don’t mind, beautiful,
Receive my goodnight kiss to you
With bursts of joy
For me, darling.

13. I Wish We Were Together Tonight

We can face time, We can talk all night But all I want is to hug you and let you know,
That you mean the world to me.
We can tweet or talk on Facebook,
But I wish I could give you endless kisses.
We could Instagram and we could text,
But more than anything, I wish we could cuddle
And snuggle all night with no shred of worry.
Goodnight, princess.

14. The Anticipation Of Tomorrow

In the silent embrace of night’s chill,
Whispers of anticipation gently enshroud.
For in the hush of darkness, dreams take flight,
And in these dreams, you’re my guiding light.
I find a strange kind of solace in this stillness,
As it holds the promise of meeting you tomorrow.

So let the night unfold all its mysteries,
For its embrace will fasten the coming of tomorrow.
Still, with each passing hour, my heart does pray,
That you have a good night
And wake up wanting to meet me at the break of day.
—Pratibha Bagdy

15. Strength

Your eyes call on me
To hang on for dear life.
You know I have been through hell;
Made it back safely in your arms
Where serenity lies,
And strength,
The energy that envelops
From your eyes.
I won’t bail on you.
Goodnight, honey.

16. Good-Night

The breeze is sighing in its flight,
Sleep, Love, and peaceful be thy rest.
Good-night, my love, good-night, good-night.

Sweet dreams attend thee in thy sleep,
To soothe thy rest till morning’s light,
And angels round thee vigil keep.
Good-night, my love, good-night, good-night.

Sleep well, my love, on night’s dark breast,
And ease thy soul with slumber bright;
Be joy but thine and I am blest.
Good-night, my love, good-night, good-night.
— Paul Laurence Dunbar

17. A Lovely Poem

From the onset
I made it clear to myself
That I will never be elsewhere
But with this one, I cherish it with all my heart.
Even if circumstances threaten my decision,
They will fail woefully
Because I have got my goodnight kisses
As a backup plan,
Well-packaged and sent through this lovely poem.
I hope you’ll love them.

18. You Are The Love Of My Life

As I lie here in my bed,
I can’t help but think about you
With a broad smile plastered on my face.
Because I feel thankful and lucky.
To call you the love of my life.
I won’t promise you the world
But I promise to be next to you
All the days of my life.
Goodnight and I love you.

protip_icon Trivia

19. Never Let You Go

The day I met you
Was the day I swore
To never let you go.
So much about you
Gives me joy, peace
And hope that someday
I will have you to hold and to cherish.
Before my dream comes true,
Have a good night, babe.

20. Thank You

You are the one whom my heart beats for
The one who makes my heart pound a little harder
And my breath fall a little shorter
I would wish for nothing more in the whole wide world
Than to be in your arms forever. I am not ashamed about what we have
Thank you for everything
Goodnight, my dear.

21. A Warm Embrace

Troubled by the chill brought by the night,
I yearn for the warmth you bring.
Alas, the image of your face,
As pretty as the moon,
Brings some solace to my cold night.

But I will trouble you no more.
It’s time to slumber, my dear.

However, in dreams let’s find each other,
And dance to the music of the twinkling stars,
For in your presence, I find my tune,
And the desire to spend all moons with you, my boon.
Have a good night, my dearest.
— Pratibha Bagdy

22. Funny Heart

I have a funny heart
That knows no shame
As it beats ferociously
And flutters its wings excitedly
To the wind of your presence.
In your tenderness,
You could suggest a heart check
To keep safe.
But I am fine
If not better
With my funny heart.
Goodnight, my dearest.

23. Making My Life Worth

Thank you
For making my life worth every heartbeat.
Thank you
For making my love your muse.
Thank you
For your heart is so tender and true
Nothing compares to it.
Goodnight, sweetheart.

24. Seasons

Summer leaves
Broad and happy.
Winter ice
Bright and classy.
You, my baby
Fun and pretty
Are much more than seasons
And reasons.
I love you
For whom you are.
Goodnight.

25. You Are The Perfect One

Did I tell you
That my breath gets caught in my throat
Whenever you smile while making gestures with your slender hands?
Are you aware
That there’s a certain pull
You have on me
Whenever you pronounce my name?
I may not have an exhaustive explanation to the tricks my heart play
Whenever you are with me
But I’m sure
Love has a hand in them.
Goodnight! You are the perfect one.

26. Calmness Of The Night

If anyone wants to behold natural, unfeigned beauty,
Let him have a peek
At your reposing face.
In the calmness of the night,
Your loveliness causes uncontrollable stirs
Deep in the pit of my stomach.
Enjoy a beautiful sleep, my princess.

27. If I Were Your Blanket

I wish I were your blanket,
So I could cuddle with you all night. I wish I was a pillow,
So you would rest your head on me
If I were your pajamas, you’d hug me so tight
I wish I could be your sheets
Just to tug with you all night long
But since I can’t be any of these things
I hope to dream with you every day,
Just to wake up in a happy mood every morning.
Sending warm goodnight kisses to you.

28. We Make The Perfect Team

I know I don’t express my feelings quite well
But that doesn’t mean I don’t cherish or value what we have
I am a typical guy that’s too afraid to say how much you brighten my life
I feel more than lucky to be called yours
In so many ways, I don’t think I deserve someone so perfect
But I know we make the perfect team
I love you and have a splendid night ahead.

29. The Warmth Of The Night

I tried to convey my feelings.
The first day of the new day.
In the heat of today’s heat, I have touched your face.
My heart flutters most nights at night.
You have always been my light.
It’s like the moon sitting proudly in the sky
The stars are in my emotional splendor
Checking the skies
It is a way of bringing light to the darkness.
I always made a beautiful decision
To make a new life together.
My heart is free from stutters
It doesn’t matter how dark the night is.
Just as this night
It isn’t different from what I have always stated
You will be my love every day, morning and night.
Your emotions will show me the way.

30. Sleep Well, My Darling

Sleep well, that’s all you have to do.
Not for me, not for anyone else,
but only for you.
The world has not been kind to anyone,
not to mothers or daughters,
nor fathers nor sons.
It has been a rather tough sequence of days,
but seeing your rise through all the pain,
all the hardship, even when you feel the weight of the Earth upon your very shoulders,
has given us all hope for a new day.
But for now, you must sleep well.
The troubles that plague you
vanish in the land of dreams.
So sleep well, for the morning bears chances anew.

31. Goodnight, My Princess

Goodnight, my princess.
Goodnight, my every hue.
Goodnight, my moon and stars above.
Goodnight, my darling, true.
Goodnight, my universe,
My everything and more.
Goodnight, my trusted faithful,
And hark to hear the score.
Goodnight, my beautiful,
And trust my words are true
For lest the sun rise suddenly,
I’ll start to write of you.
Goodnight, my single only,
For it is to you whom I have swore
Never to lie, never to cheat,
Never to late return.
Goodnight, my dearest sunshine,
‘Till dawn shall bring us to,
And dream of me, my princess,
As I shall dream of you.
— Lark Train, hellopoetry.com

32. A Growing Excitement

My journal holds stories of these feeling
Hallucinating my mind to deep love
I swim under the ocean of your timidity
To watch the moon, drown in oceans.
Your absence stir more unheard words
The wits cannot bring me to term with night
To understand the uprising in my heart
To dig in shallow tears that come real.
I want you to be here
Through the absence of the sun
And the presence of loneliness
Shake it off my blanket
And wrap myself in you.
In this night I have a story
And it begins like this
I love you baby
Good night, my love.

33. Goodnight

A woman returns home after a long day,
tired, haggard, but still smiling,
knowing the good she has done today.
She has done all she needed to do,
her work exceptional, top-notch.
A lot of good she has done,
for herself and the others in her life.
Finally, the night has come,
now you’d think she’d finally rest.
She, however, takes more time out of her day,
for those who need it.
Checking on her friends,
making sure they’re okay,
ready and willing to listen
to anything they have to say.
A truly selfless woman she is,
giving so much to others.
It is finally time for her to think of herself,
so rest well, and goodnight

34. Home at Night

Where do I sleep if you’re not there?
The moon is high up in the sky
It is far from my reach
The stars are travelling across the sky
While I blow wishes that you should be close.
Where do I sleep if you are far?
My night has begun to ache with sadness
The darkness becomes a misery
I wish my tears would not find alone.
If you do read these words my baby
Then know it is no good night without you.
— Unknown

35. Good Night, My Love!

I am saying good night, it’s so hard to do,
you are not here with me, but many miles away,
My heart is empty, and lonely inside,
As I wipe my tears, falling from my face.
I close my eyes, while going to sleep,
with sadness inside, I begin to weep.
I remember suddenly, what you said to me,
Just meet me in the clouds, we’ll enjoy the ride.
When distance is a task, it can keep us apart,
Remember, I still hold you, close to my heart.
we will float through the clouds, till the miles are gone,
Just close your eyes, we’ll pretend we’re together.
I can see the clouds, oh, how beautiful they are,
I sit and wait, with hope in my heart,
one day we will be, together, for ever.
Good night my love, I’ll be dreaming of you!
— David L Yearwood

38. Good-Night Poem

Good-night? ah! no; the hour is ill
Which severs those it should unite;
Let us remain together still,
Then it will be good night.
How can I call the lone night good,
Though thy sweet wishes wing its flight?
Be it not said, thought, understood –
Then it will be – good night.
To hearts which near each other move
From evening close to morning light,
The night is good; because, my love,
They never say good-night.
— Percy Bysshe Shelley

39. If I’m Alive When You Say Goodnight

If this is how I feel
Then it must be real
I can’t explain how my mind runs
If I’m still alive
When you say goodnight
Then my life has just begun
I’m climbing across the room
Bracing the monsoon
That’s gonna take me down
And if I’m still alive
When you say goodnight
Then I hope you stay around
I’m perfect. No I’m not
I’m happy with that
I think it’s better to change yourself
You’ll never be the same
You can even change your name
But I can always be myself
Around you
— Jordan Rowan, hellopoetry.com

40. Smiling with the Stars

During the hours I wish for us
I pray it is not the night
For I would pluck every star in the sky
Searching for which holds your resemblance.
The pillows bear me witness
Every night tales with my tears
Never ceasing to wish and want to see my angel
I love you like the closing of the evening.
Tonight I smile with the moon
Hoping my hands can touch the stars
To tickle me into dreams with you
During such a night, a very good night.

Know that i love you,
Now I must slumber,
I will fantasize and dream about you my prince,
Feel free to invade my head anytime you wish,
I will always be here with you,
Goodnight to the sweetest heart out there,
May all your sweet dreams come true lover dear.

42. Coming Closer

So in this world
Nothing comes closer to my heart
Like you my sweet angel.
You have a way with words around me
They stir me up at night
And put me to wake to dreams
I see you all night
Closer to my heart
Touching my dreams
And clouding my thoughts
My sweet nightingale.
I love every moment with you
Even to times where you are absent
Like night.
Come closer each night
Bring along with you your heart
Let me feel the rhythm
Let me dance to this love
As I wish you goodnight.

Sleep tight, my dearest wife
May your dreams be filled with love and life
May the peace of the night surround you
And the stars above shine upon you
As you close your eyes and drift away
May you feel my love with you always
For you are my shining star
Guiding me through life, no matter where we are
With each breath you take, I am in awe
Of the grace and beauty that you draw
Into your very being, filling your heart and soul
With a radiance that makes me whole
As you lay there, with gentle sleep
I count my blessings, how lucky I am to keep
You by my side, to share this life
To cherish each other, as husband and wife
So rest easy, my love, and know
That wherever you are, I will go
To be with you through thick and thin
To love you now, and forever, again and again
Sleep tight, my dearest wife

With love, peace, and happiness galore
And know that my love for you will always soar.

44. While You Sleep…

Your adorable snores fill the air,
I hope your dreams are soft and pleasant
Don’t mind me, continue to rest,
for the night was dark and deep.
There are many things I need to do,
all while you sleep.
I hope you don’t notice me gone,
I’m just in the kitchen, slaving over the stove,
making your favorite meal.
I hope the sweet aroma awakes you,
but don’t wake just yet.
The tea still needs to steep,
and I have many things I need to do,
all while you sleep.
I have to run to the store,
and shop for your gift.
You deserve to be spoiled,
you’ve been doing so well these past few weeks.
I hope this present I have for you,
will give your spirits a lift.
I’m back home now.
Don’t worry, I won’t make a peep,
but I’m so excited for you to see
all that awaits you, while you sleep.

45. Shine Bright Like Stars

Those shimmering stars have nothing on you
Nothing can replicate your aura
Not the night can define your beauty.
This night only defines my loneliness
Like the radiance revolving the moon.
I pray morning knocks soon
So we see to break the silence of the night.
The cool morning breeze
The soft falling dew
The stream of sun
All these are reminders of you
Especially at night.
I love how we always love with no template
Like the moon does with the night.
— Unknown

46. Good Night, My Life

Your voice is my heart’s solace
Your touch is my soul’s happiness
Your love sets my life’s pace
Your beautiful smile is priceless
Your kisses make my heart race
You are nothing less than a princess
My heart is your special place
Life without you is just worthless.
Goodnight.

In the end,
All that will make waves is,
You and me together
As we move mountains
And spring forth from valleys.

To be us, nothing holds us back.
Goodnight.

Look no further, babe
For the one, you seek after
Is awake and sound
Miles away,
Bearing words of comfort
That your night may be
Soft and splendid.

Before the night pushes its heavy self
Into the face of the earth.

And never adieu.

Pierces through the eyes of darkness
That stare mockingly into my soul.

And a heart full of love
I set my fingers steady
To text the love of my life
Have the sweetest night, my love.

Does us good as neighbors
But is the strongest enemy
To our passionate affair.

But I guess we will make do
With seeing each other
From the inception of dawn.

My heart finally discovered its desire I will never say goodbye
Neither will I depart your side
Only saying goodnight,
And that I cherish you for being mine forever.

71. A Good Night

Close now thine eyes and rest secure;
Thy soul is safe enough, thy body sure;
He that loves thee, He that keeps
And guards thee, never slumbers, never sleeps.
The smiling conscience in a sleeping breast
Has only peace, has only rest;
The music and the mirth of kings
Are all but very discords, when she sings;
Then close thine eyes and rest secure;
No sleep so sweet as thine, no rest so sure.
— Francis Quarles

Wishing you a good night!

Is wish you a tender goodnight.

With the strength from a restful sleep.
Good night.

My dawdling mind
And my heart begins
To sing songs
Like the birds of
early morn.

Let’s not waste the hours
Come and dance with me
In the bright moonlight showers.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What makes a good night poem unique and memorable?

Using vivid and evocative imagery, a musical rhyme with a flow, harmony, balance, spiritual relatability, reassuring or contemplative words, and emotional resonance with the reader can make a nocturne poem unique and memorable.

2. How can good night poems be customized to fit the personality and preferences of the recipient?

Customize good night stanzas in terms of language, tone, length, and form of presentation. The language and vocabulary used in the psalm can match her interests, linguistic proficiency, or personality. The tone can be lighthearted, humorous, romantic, creative, dreamy, reflective, or introspective. The poems may be in haiku form or longer and more rhythmic based on whether they are presented as a letter, a card of salutation, handwritten note, or as part of a gift.

3. How do I choose the right poem for my significant other?

Contemplate her likes and preferences, and seek suggestions online and from friends to pick a personalized poem that aligns with her personality and interests. Make sure you choose a poem that makes her feel special.

4. Are there any specific themes or styles of poetry that are particularly effective for good night poems?

Choose poems that make you feel calm and peaceful, such as the ones inspired by nature, quietness, or love. Further, poems that sound gentle and flow smoothly are perfect for a night, as they can create a sense of comfort and tranquility. You may also opt for short love poems to express your feelings without being overwhelming.

5. Should I write my poem or choose one that has already been written?

If you’re looking for poems to make her fall in love, adding a personal touch by writing your own poem can make it even more special. But choosing an existing poem can work equally well if you find a poem that captures your emotions perfectly.

Goodnight poems can be shared through various mediums—text messages, handwritten notes, or voice recordings.
