You are my lover and my friend, you are my everything.

I shall remain here waiting, even if for eternity.

In this poem, the poet uses nature’s unity to describe the longing for a reciprocal love. She argues that everything in the world is interconnected, and love should be no exception.

The fountains mingle with the river

   And the rivers with the ocean,

The winds of heaven mix for ever

   With a sweet emotion;

Nothing in the world is single;

   All things by a law divine

In one spirit meet and mingle.

   Why not I with thine?—

See the mountains kiss high heaven

   And the waves clasp one another;

No sister-flower would be forgiven

   If it disdained its brother;

And the sunlight clasps the earth

   And the moonbeams kiss the sea:

What is all this sweet work worth

   If thou kiss not me?

– Percy Bysshe Shelley, Poetry Foundation

About why I just love you so

And why I want you here

Why I need you here with me

So I can shower you with love

Why it is so clear to see

You are an angel from above

An angel sent from heavens high

To bring the lords own prayer

That you and I on blue skies fly

Share a love that is true and rare

A love that is so truly pure

That it completely fills my heart

A love that will forever endure

And that we shall never part

A love that will last you see

Until the end of time

A love which joins us – you and me

And forever will our hearts entwine”

– Unknown

“I think I was searching for treasures or stones

in the clearest of pools

when your face…

when your face,

like the moon in a well

where I might wish…

might well wish

for the iced fire of your kiss;

only on water my lips, where your face…

where your face was reflected, lovely,

not really there when I turned

to look behind at the emptying air…

the emptying air.”

— Carol Ann Duffy

This poem describes the all-consuming love for their partner. The speaker mentions how their love will endure everything, from spiritual and practical issues to even death. 

“How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
For the ends of being and ideal grace.
I love thee to the level of every day’s
Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light.
I love thee freely, as men strive for right.
I love thee purely, as they turn from praise.
I love thee with the passion put to use
In my old griefs, and with my childhood’s faith.
I love thee with a love I seemed to lose
With my lost saints. I love thee with the breath,
Smiles, tears, of all my life; and, if God choose,
I shall but love thee better after death.”

– Elizabeth Barrett Browning

All these feelings I just can’t hide.

You’ll always be in my heart.

Can’t bear the pain when we are apart.

Nobody is as special as you are to me.

I hope you are beginning to see

Just how much I care for you,

And all my feelings will always be true.

I can’t describe how much I care,

But when you need me, I’ll be there

To wipe those tears when you are sad,

To make you happy when you are mad.

All these things I can really do.

Just remember I’m thinking of you!

– Jetem Westbrook, Family Friends Poems

7. The Good-Morrow

In this poem, the speaker reflects on how life before love seemed empty, but now, with love, the world feels fuller. The poem shows love as something that transcends time and space. 

“I wonder, by my troth, what thou and I

Did, till we loved? Were we not weaned till then?

But sucked on country pleasures, childishly?

Or snorted we in the Seven Sleepers’ den?

’Twas so; but this, all pleasures fancies be.

If ever any beauty I did see,

Which I desired, and got, ’twas but a dream of thee.

And now good-morrow to our waking souls,

Which watch not one another out of fear;

For love, all love of other sights controls,

And makes one little room an everywhere.

Let sea-discoverers to new worlds have gone,

Let maps to other, worlds on worlds have shown,

Let us possess one world, each hath one, and is one.

My face in thine eye, thine in mine appears,

And true plain hearts do in the faces rest;

Where can we find two better hemispheres,

Without sharp north, without declining west?

Whatever dies, was not mixed equally;

If our two loves be one, or, thou and I

Love so alike, that none do slacken, none can die.”

– John Donne, Poetry Foundation

This poem conveys how love should be valued above material wealth. The speaker also hopes that the love she has lasts forever and that she gets to live with her partner for eternity.  

“If ever two were one, then surely we.
If ever man were loved by wife, then thee.
If ever wife was happy in a man,
Compare with me, ye women, if you can.
I prize thy love more than whole mines of gold,
Or all the riches that the East doth hold.
My love is such that rivers cannot quench,
Nor ought but love from thee give recompense.
Thy love is such I can no way repay;
The heavens reward thee manifold, I pray.
Then while we live, in love let’s so persevere,
That when we live no more, we may live ever.”

– Anne Bradstreet, Poetry Foundation

9. One Hundred Love Sonnets: XVII

In this poem, the poet compares the love for a partner with flowers, light, and other natural objects to convey how their connection cannot be explained in generic terms. The poet also mentions that they have come so close that they have almost become one.

“I don’t love you as if you were a rose of salt, topaz,
or arrow of carnations that propagate fire:
I love you as one loves certain obscure things,
secretly, between the shadow and the soul.
I love you as the plant that doesn’t bloom but carries
the light of those flowers, hidden, within itself,
and thanks to your love the tight aroma that arose
from the earth lives dimly in my body.
I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where,
I love you directly without problems or pride:
I love you like this because I don’t know any other way to love,
except in this form in which I am not nor are you,
so close that your hand upon my chest is mine,
so close that your eyes close with my dreams.”

– Pablo Neruda, Poetry Foundation

My happiness and my tears

Sharing gossip and fun

And all the things that I have done

Sharing my troubles and delights

Even after all our fights

Sharing thoughts about my roadblocks

Over our lengthy talks

Leaves me without a single worry

Only because I have a wonderful hubby

Your unwavering support and adulation

Makes me feel blessed with heartfelt admirationI love you.”

– Unknown 

11. I Love You

The poem focuses on the physical and emotional connection between a couple. It celebrates the bliss and fulfillment of being close and intimate with a partner.

“I love your lips when they’re wet with wine

And red with a wild desire;

I love your eyes when the lovelight lies

Lit with a passionate fire.

I love your arms when the warm white flesh

Touches mine in a fond embrace;

I love your hair when the strands enmesh

Your kisses against my face.

Not for me the cold, calm kiss

Of a virgin’s bloodless love;

Not for me the saint’s white bliss,

Nor the heart of a spotless dove.

But give me the love that so freely gives

And laughs at the whole world’s blame,

With your body so young and warm in my arms,

It sets my poor heart aflame.

So kiss me sweet with your warm wet mouth,

Still fragrant with ruby wine,

And say with a fervor born of the South

That your body and soul are mine.

Clasp me close in your warm young arms,

While the pale stars shine above,

And we’ll live our whole young lives away

In the joys of a living love.”

– Ella Wheeler Wilcox, Poetry Foundation

12. Meeting at Night

The poem portrays a journey to a peaceful, intimate destination where the only reality is the tender connection between two hearts. It compares and contrasts the dynamic sea with the warmth and closeness of human love.

“I

The grey sea and the long black land;

And the yellow half-moon large and low;

And the startled little waves that leap

In fiery ringlets from their sleep,

As I gain the cove with pushing prow,

And quench its speed i’ the slushy sand.

II

Then a mile of warm sea-scented beach;

Three fields to cross till a farm appears;

A tap at the pane, the quick sharp scratch

And blue spurt of a lighted match,

And a voice less loud, thro’ its joys and fears,

Than the two hearts beating each to each!”

– Robert Browning, Poetry Foundation

13. Dear Husband

In this poem, the speaker talks about how meeting her partner has made her realize what true love feels like. 

Until we met,

I was not sure of true love.

For me, love was a fantasy, 

a fairy tale found only in books.

But ever since I saw you, 

I knew you were meant for me.

You may not be the perfect partner, who is?

But you certainly are the one who completes me in numerous ways.

— Swati Patwal

14. For My Husband

The poem showcases love as something that is strong enough to stand challenges and the test of time. It also portrays love as eternal—with no beginning or end. 

“Loving you has no end and no beginning

Loving you is everything

It is infinite in time

And limitless in magnitude

Beyond even my own comprehension

Your love brings me home

Enfolds me and warms me

In its eternal embrace

Endless and palpable

Beyond all life’s storms

A connection like no other

Twenty years long

But timeless in our hearts

Deep and true

Til’ death us do part”

– Susan Louglin, Nature Poems

15. Love’s Vicissitudes

This poem is about the joy and sadness brought by emotional transitions. It explores the themes of love, hope, despair, and indifference.

“As Love and Hope together

Walk by me for a while,

Link-armed the ways they travel

For many a pleasant mile –

Link-armed and dumb they travel,

They sing not, but they smile.

Hope leaving, Love commences

To practise on the lute;

And as he sings and travels

With lingering, laggard foot,

Despair plays obligato

The sentimental flute.

Until in singing garments

Comes royally, at call –

Comes limber-hipped Indiff’rence

Free stepping, straight and tall –

Comes singing and lamenting,

The sweetest pipe of all.”

– Robert Louis Stevenson, Poetry Lover’s Page

16. The love of my life

The speaker describes the partner as a rare and profound gift and touches on the emotional and physical connection they have with the partner. 

“You’re my best friend and my lover

I know this to be true
For I wake every morning
Thinking solely of you

Your tender touch and gentle kiss
A feeling no words can describe
Something I am yearning for
When you’re at my side

A beauty that radiates
From both inside and out
A heaven-sent gift
No question about

A passion that penetrates
As deep as a knife
I’m happy I found you
The love of my life.”

– Christopher J. Hill

17. Love’s Language

This poem is about how love can be expressed through subtle yet powerful physical and emotional gestures. Each stanza reveals how love speaks without words, through a glance, touch, heartbeat, embrace, and more. 

“How does Love speak?

In the faint flush upon the tell-tale cheek,

And in the pallor that succeeds it; by

The quivering lid of an averted eye

The smile that proves the parent to a sigh.

Thus doth Love speak.

How does Love speak?

By uneven heart-throbs, and the freak

Of bounding pulses that stand still and ache,

While new emotions, like strange barges, make

Along vein-channels their disturbing course;

Still as the dawn, and with the dawn’s swift force.

Thus doth love speak.

How does Love speak?

In the proud spirit suddenly grown meek

The haughty heart grew humble; in the tender

And unnamed light that floods the world with splendour,

In the resemblance which the fond eyes trace

In all fair things to one beloved face;

In the shy touch of hands that thrill and tremble;

In looks and lips that can no more dissemble

Thus doth love speak.

How does love speak?

In the wild words that uttered seem so weak

They shrink ashamed to silence; in the fire

Glance strikes with glance, swift flashing high and higher,

Like lightning that precede the mighty storm;

In the deep, soulful stillness; in the warm,

Impassioned tide that sweeps through throbbing veins,

Between the shores of keen delights and pains;

In the embrace where madness melt in bliss,

And in the convulsive rapture of a kiss

Thus doth Love speak.”

– Ella Wheeler Wilcox

Of a crowd of workmen and drivers in a bar-room around the stove late of a winter night, and I unremark’d seated in a corner,

Of a youth who loves me and whom I love, silently approaching and seating himself near, that he may hold me by the hand,

A long while amid the noises of coming and going, of drinking and oath and smutty jest,

There we two, content, happy in being together, speaking little, perhaps not a word.”

It’s what sets my heart freeI love you.”

Rowing in Eden –

Ah – the Sea!

Might I but moor – tonight –

In thee!

For a marriage that is beyond,

Expectations truly exceeded,

Only with love, I can respond.

So thoughtful and kind,

Your love is never in question.

Even on an ordinary day

There’s a lot I want to say

I love you.”

Never seek to tell thy love,

  Love that never told can be;

For the gentle wind doth move

  Silently, invisibly.

I told my love, I told my love,

  I told her all my heart,

Trembling, cold, in ghastly fears.

  Ah! she did depart!

Soon after she was gone from me,

  A traveller came by,

Silently, invisibly:

  He took her with a sigh.

As drowned the friendly cooings of my dove.

And yours one moment seemed to wax more strong;
I loved and guessed at you, you construed me
And loved me for what might or might not be –
Nay, weights and measures do us both a wrong.”

And think of how I turned complete.

I am only complete when you are near,

To lose you someday is my biggest fear.

It takes two halves to make a whole,

My heart and yours, we make one soul.”

Together means we’re never sad.”

But always you are there for me
Loving, and caring,
you make me so happy.
Together we journey life’s windy road
Together we carry each other’s load
Together we will always be glad
That each other we do have.”

Thanks for being my best friend
When I needed just an ear
Thanks for supporting me
When I just needed someone near
Thanks for being my advocate
When I needed someone’s belief
Thanks for being my healing balm
When I needed some relief
Thanks for being my everything
When I need just a little more
As a husband you deserve
A perfect ten on ten score”
