Love Poems for Him
If a quote or message doesn’t seem enough, try an entire love poem. Literature has amazing love poems, both old and new, long and short. Choose a style that suits him and your relationship.
- "Touched by an Angel," Maya Angelou
"Love arrives
and in its train come ecstasies
old memories of pleasure
ancient histories of pain.
Yet if we are bold,
love strikes away the chains of fear
from our souls.
We are weaned from our timidity
In the flush of love's light
we dare be brave
And suddenly we see
that love costs all we are
and will ever be.
Yet it is only love
which sets us free."
- “By My Side,” Amanda Stahl
“You're my rock that held me up yesterday,
Listening to every word I have to say.
You're my shoulder that's getting me through today.”
- “How Do I Love Thee,” Elizabeth Barrett Browning
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.
- Rumi
“The minute I heard my first love story
I started looking for you,
Not knowing how blind that was.
Lovers don't finally meet somewhere.
They're in each other all along.”
- “Lullaby,” W.H. Auden
“Lay your sleeping head, my love,
Human on my faithless arm;
Time and fevers burn away
Individual beauty from
Thoughtful children, and the grave
Proves the child ephemeral:
But in my arms till break of day
Let the living creature lie,
Mortal, guilty, but to me
The entirely beautiful.”
- “Love Song,” Dorothy Parker
My love, he's mad, and my love, he's fleet,
And a wild young wood-thing bore him!
...
As sharply sweet to my heart he seems
As the fragrance of acacia.
My own dear love, he is all my dreams,
And I wish he were in Asia.”
- “The Passionate Year,” Georgia Douglas Johnson
The world is small, the world is wide,
But you are all the world to me;
My anchor on a shifting tide,
My star upon a stormy sea.”
- “The Orange,” Wendy Cope
The job is done. I feel alright.
I’ve done a lot of work today.
I think of you with great delight,
And pick the pieces up and say:
...
I love you. I’m glad I exist.”
Love Poems for Her
From Shakespeare to modern poets, love poems for her made history. Whether their love interest was far or in the next room, whether their love was forbidden or one-sided, whether their stars aligned or not, men wrote love poems for the women they loved. It’s impossible to list all of them here, but read our favorites and be inspired.
- “Sonnet XVII,” Pablo Neruda
I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where.
I love you straightforwardly, without complexities or pride;
so I love you because I know no other way than this:
where I does not exist, nor you,
so close that your hand on my chest is my hand,
so close that your eyes close as I fall asleep.”
- “She Walks in Beauty,” Lord Byron
She walks in beauty, like the night
Of cloudless climes and starry skies;
And all that’s best of dark and bright
Meet in her aspect and her eyes.”
- “Sonnet 18,” William Shakespeare
Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer's lease hath all too short a date...
But thy eternal summer shall not fade,
Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow'st;
Nor shall death brag thou wand'rest in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou grow'st:
So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.”
- “Le Flambeau Vivant (The Living Torch),” Charles Baudelaire
They walk before me, those Eyes full of light...
They guide my steps along the path of Beauty;
They are my servants, and I am their slave.”
- “A Red, Red Rose,” Robert Burns
And I will luve thee still, my dear,
Till a’ the seas gang dry.
...
And I will come again, my luve,
Tho’ it were ten thousand mile.”
- “Maud,” Alfred, Lord Tennyson
Come into the garden, Maud,
For the black bat, night, has flown,
Come into the garden, Maud,
I am here at the gate alone;
And the woodbine spices are wafted abroad,
And the musk of the rose is blown.
…
“She is coming, my dove, my dear;
She is coming, my life, my fate;
The red rose cries, ‘She is near, she is near;’
And the white rose weeps, ‘She is late;’”
“In Three Days,” Robert Browning
So, I shall see her in three days
And just one night, but nights are short,
Then two long days, then fear decreases,
Two nights, then side by side with ceases
And mixture of souls is the short and long
Of what come next, what right or wrong.”
