Never Like This
I’ve held others before,
But it was never like this,
Where my body inhales you
And quivers with bliss,
Where my senses are reeling
From the strength of desire,
And if I can’t have you soon,
I’ll be consumed by the fire.
By Karl Fuchs
Love poetry should make the recipient feel treasured. This free rhyming romantic true love poem is a love rhyme that could also be used as a relationship poem.
If Not For You
If not for you, I wouldn’t know
What true love really meant.
I’d never feel this inner peace;
I couldn’t be content.
If not for you, I’d never have
The pleasures of romance.
I’d miss the bliss, the craziness,
Of love’s sweet, silly dance.
I have to feel your tender touch;
I have to hear your voice;
No other one could take your place;
You’re it; I have no choice.
If not for you, I’d be adrift;
I don’t know what I’d do;
I’d be searching for my other half,
Incomplete, if not for you.
By Joanna Fuchs
Love poetry can describe a fulfilling relationship. This love verse does that. You can attach this to a romantic gift or put it in your own love card.
My Everything
Bonded to you in emotional bliss,
united in physical rapture,
I realize my dreams and fantasies.
Engulfed in contentment
and satisfaction,
I know heaven in your arms.
My intense hunger nourished,
deep yearnings fulfilled,
I am open to you in total trust.
You are my refuge,
my everything

Some years ago, when I thought about starting a poetry site, I prayed about it. “Lord,” I said, “I’m about to write a poem, and if you want me to go ahead with this poetry site idea, make it a really good one.” I started writing, and in a short time, “Creatures of the Fire” was done. I looked at it and just knew I had the go ahead from God. Technically, it’s the best poem I’ve ever written, with its internal rhyme and metaphors. I loved it then, and it’s still my favorite.
Creatures of the Fire
We swan-dive into the volcano, burning;
We’re creatures of the fire,
Mingled male and female, yearning
For the heat, the sweet explosion of desire.
I splash into the pleasure, all consuming;
I’m joyfully insane,
My passion for you deep, and fully blooming;
Long after, sweet warm flickers still remain.
You make my body sizzle with your kisses,
And yet there’s so much more;
My heart is kindled, too; It knows what bliss is,
This closeness that I’ve never felt before.
My body and my heart belong to you;
I’m peaceful and complete.
I see more adventures coming for we two,
We creatures of the tender fire and heat.

Some love poems rhyme and some don’t. This is a love message in free verse, which doesn’t rhyme. This free love verse could also be framed and given as a romantic gift.
Until I Met You
Before I met you,
I thought I was happy,
and I was,
but I had never known
the rich contentment,
deep satisfaction,
and total fulfillment
you brought to me
when you came into my life.
Before I met you,
I felt a lot of things,
good things,
but I had never experienced
the indescribably intense
feelings I have for you.
Before I met you,
I thought I knew myself,
and I did,
but you looked deep inside me
and found fresh new things
for us to share.
Before I met you,
I thought I knew about love,
but I didn’t,
until I met you.
By Joanna Fuchs
Love poetry can use imagery, as this romantic poem does in its references to nature.
A Love Song
Let me sing you a love song
About what I feel in my heart;
Butterflies can’t find nectar
Whenever we’re apart.
You’re a flower in bloom.
In the dark, in the gloom,
It’s you who brightens my day.
How many ways do I need you?
Every day, every way, come what may.
By Karl Fuchs
Love rhymes can list what one person loves about the other. Joanna wrote this why I love you poem for Karl for Valentine’s Day 2006. This love verse could be printed, framed, and given as a romantic gift.
Reasons Why
Our love is the long lasting kind;
We’ve been together quite awhile.
I love you for so many things,
Your voice, your touch, your kiss, your smile.
You accept me as I am;
I can relax and just be me.
Even when my quirks come out,
You think they’re cute; you let me be.
With you, there’s nothing to resist;
You’re irresistible to me.
I’m drawn to you in total trust;
I give myself to you willingly.
Your sweet devotion never fails;
You view me with a patient heart.
You love me, dear, no matter what.
You’ve been that way right from the start.
Those are just a few reasons why
I’ll always love you like I do.
We’ll have a lifetime full of love,
And it will happen because of you.
By Joanna Fuchs
Some love poetry is specific to gender, as this man to woman love poem is.
One In A Million
You’re one in a million, my most special one;
Your radiant smile is as bright as the sun;
You’re smart and caring and have many great charms,
And my heart really sings when you’re wrapped in my arms.
I’m happy you chose me from all of the rest,
And I’m proud ’cause I know that I got the best.
You’re so cute and sweet, and you glow like a pearl;
I just love you so much, my most wonderful girl!
By Karl Fuchs
Here’s a free verse love poem that attempts to describe feelings of longing when lovers are apart. Of course, you can change the color of eyes to whatever you want…brown, gray, green, etc.
Come to Me
When you’re away from me
I long for you…
in my thoughts,
in the center of my soul.
I yearn to see
the affection in your eyes…
blue depths of love for me.
I crave the safe warmth
of your arms around me…
my cave of comfort, ease and peace.
My body aches with hunger for you…
the exquisite torture
of delayed ecstasy,
coming soon, coming soon.
I long for you, I yearn for you,
I ache for you…
Please, bring all that I crave
in your incomparable self.
Come to me. Come to me.
By Joanna Fuchs
Love poems are usually written by people who are happy in their relationships–at least the happy love poems are! Here’s a love poem from one very happy partner to another. This is perfect for a romantic card or to accompany a romantic gift.
Safe Within Our Love
How did this miracle happen
That we’re so very blessed,
So close…and more contented,
Than I ever would have guessed.
I never thought that I
Could spend each precious minute
With just one special person
And find happiness within it.
I’ve learned so much from you
About loving, sharing, giving;
I know if I hadn’t met you,
I wouldn’t be really living.
We’re facing life together;
We’re handling joy and sorrow;
I’m glad you’re on my side,
Whatever comes tomorrow.
You’re my perfect partner,
Sweet lover, trusted friend.
We’re safe within our love,
A love that will never end.
By Joanna Fuchs
Love messages can appreciate a specific quality of the loved one, as this free love poem appreciates unconditional love. It also qualifies as a relationship poem.
You Let Me Be Me
While others tell me I have faults and flaws,
And pick me all apart and criticize,
You love me, sweetheart, just the way I am;
I only see affection in your eyes.
My pesky quirks you only find endearing;
Your perfect mate is what you choose to see;
I love you for a multitude of reasons;
And most of all ’cause you let me be me.
I never have to change to meet your standards;
Acceptance is the greatest gift you give;
I appreciate you for your sweet devotion,
And I’ll love you for as long as we shall live.
By Joanna Fuchs
Love messages can be custom tailored to the recipient. Joanna has strawberry blonde hair, so Karl wrote it this way, but this romantic love poem will fit any woman. Change “reddish” to “golden” or “raven” (black) or “chestnut” (brown).
My Girl with the Reddish Hair
Pirates bold in days of old
Searched the world for treasure rare,
But none they found as bright and sound,
As my girl with the reddish hair.
Precious gold and sparkling jewels
Were fortunes to make men care,
But none were worth a penny
Next to my girl with the reddish hair.
These pirates fought and died for wealth;
Their lives I wouldn’t share,
For I have the only wealth I need:
My girl with the reddish hair.
By Joanna Fuchs
Love messages can convey a “before you” and “after you” state of mind. This love poem in free verse (it doesn’t rhyme) describes a person whose self knowledge may have been faulty.
Because of You
I was self sufficient,
gratified by my independence,
alone, but not lonely,
I thought.
But I was restless,
searching blindly for something
to fill an empty place
I didn’t even know I had,
dimly aware
that I was somehow unfinished.
Then you came,
and filled everything,
every space, every need,
even secret dreams
I had concealed from myself.
I was self sufficient,
and restless;
Now I am profoundly peaceful
and complete,
because of you.
By Joanna Fuchs
Love messages can contain detailed description, metaphors, even stories. This cute love poem includes fantasy as well.
The Wizard
There’s a story told of a wizard
Who, for money, would cast a spell,
And I’m sure that you met this wizard,
And you, his wares he did sell.
What else can explain how your smile
Can make my heartbeat roar,
Or how your look slows my breathing,
While causing my spirits to soar.
I’m sure that you and this wizard
Conspired to control my brain,
For I’m always thinking about you–
Feeling happy and slightly insane.
Now I hope I meet that same wizard,
For I’d give him all of my gold,
To make you want to stay with me,
And share happiness as we grow old.
By Karl Fuchs
Love poetry can tell a story. Here’s a love message from someone who’s had some rough relationships, but finally found his dream partner.
The Dream Road
I’ve had a dream, since I was young
Of just how life should be,
But through the years, try as I might,
That dream eluded me.
I dreamed of a life that was filled with bliss;
I dreamed of love and sharing.
I dreamed, imagined and creatively planned
An adventure for two who were caring.
The road to today was paved with the dreams
That slowly got ground to dust.
And I’ve trudged that road and carried my load
And tried very hard to adjust.
Each step made me stronger; each test made me wiser,
So on my long walk, I grew,
Till the time was right, one magical night,
For the road to make room for two.
Now my brain shouts your name, and your loving reply
Makes a place for you in my heart.
(Name), it cries–so tender, so wise–
Let’s make the adventure start!
Together we’re blessed with a perfect match,
Something that’s bright and new.
It’s not too late, so let’s create
A life that makes dreams come true.
By Karl Fuchs
Love poetry expresses the all-encompassing nature of love. This free romantic love poem describes how the loved on is always on your mind.
Daydreams
My thoughts of you come frequently;
They’re always filled with you and me.
No matter what I see or when,
It brings you back to mind again.
I’d be sitting, reading a book,
Or be out walking by a brook;
No matter what the path I took,
I’d see dream images of how you look.
Each day is filled with dreams of you;
I hope that all these dreams come true.
By Karl Fuchs
Love poetry can describe some of the craziness that love brings with it, as this free romantic love poem does.
Beware
When love strikes us hard and makes mush of our brain,
When love sneaks in and makes us insane,
All sense can depart and leave the brain blank,
When love like that strikes it can drain our whole tank.
So beware of the power you exert over me,
For I’m under your spell; that’s clear as can be.
Whenever you’re near, my brain slips out of joint;
I fight my love, but what is the point?
You’re my strength and my weakness, for I love you so dearly,
And I hope our love shines through the years just as clearly.
By Karl Fuchs
Perfect For Me
How do you do it day after day,
Staying perfect for me in every way,
But do it you do, so I can’t complain;
You put up with me, even when I’m a pain.
Problems arise, and solutions get tried;
Through it all, you are always right there by my side.
Your caring for me is a gift without measure;
Your passion and strength make our union a treasure.
Though parts of us fail as we get older,
There are parts that get better and make our love bolder.
Your love and devotion make my life shine,
So I hope that forever you will be mine.
By Karl and Joanna Fuchs
Karl wrote this love poem for red-haired Joanna.
Wondrous Whirl
We’ve known each other quite a while,
Yet days spent with you still make me smile.
The sun shines brighter when you’re near;
You’ve brightened my life through every year.
There are some times when we disagree,
When angry thoughts fill you and me.
But angry thoughts just don’t last long,
For the love we share is way too strong.
I thank the Lord that we did meet,
And I partnered up with you, my sweet.
It’s hard to think of a better mate,
Life with you, for me, is great!
So let’s keep going in this wondrous whirl,
I’ll always love my little red haired girl!
By Karl Fuchs
Love Poems for a Wife
Karl wrote this love poem for Joanna’s birthday in 2014.
A Love Poem for My Wife
You’re the love of my life, my sweet, wonderful wife,
And that’s what you’ll always be.
I can hardly believe the good fortune I’ve had
Through the years since you married me.
Each year spent with you is a blessing; it’s true!
Each year brings contentment so rare;
Each year binds us stronger and deeper in love,
and my wish is for more years to share!
By Karl Fuchs
This love poem has a “forever” quality about it. It’s about soulmates, the perfect team.
Partner for Life
My partner for life is you, my sweet wife;
I feel the bright joy you provide.
You fill life with pleasure;
You’re my very own treasure;
Without you, I’d be empty inside.
Let’s cherish the good times, learn from the bad,
Make the most of the life we share
If things get you down, don’t worry; don’t frown.
Always remember, I care!
By Karl Fuchs
Love Poem for a Deceased Wife
I guess you could call this love poem a short tribute to my deceased wife.
A Love Poem for My Late Wife
My beloved wife,
You’re the love of my life.
Now that you’re gone,
Your sweet memory lives on.
Thoughts of you light my way,
Brightening each day.
We’ll never really part;
You’re so deep in my heart.
I’m yours and you’re mine,
Till the end of time.
By Joanna Fuchs
There are many searches for a Love Poem for a Deceased Husband, so I wrote one.
You’re Gone
You’re gone,
but you’re giving me love
in sweet memories.
You’re gone,
and I recall how you filled up my life
with contentment, romance and laughter.
You’re gone, but not really.
Love of my life, you gave me
lasting emotional security,
because your love is always with me.
So you see, my darling,
You’re not gone.
You’re here, with me,
in my heart and mind,
and you always will be.
I’ll see you again on the other side.
By Joanna Fuchs
Teen Love Poems
Teen love poems should address common experiences, like unrequited love, as this teenage love poem does.
Invisible
I see you at school
And you glance my way,
Passing in the halls
In your ordinary day.
But anytime
Your eyes meet mine
Is a day so rare,
A day so fine.
Just another face,
I’m nothing to you;
You look but don’t see;
You haven’t a clue…
That my heart is racing;
I’m trembling inside;
So much love for you
I’m trying to hide.
You smile at others;
You pass me by;
I’m invisible,
And I want to cry.
By Joanna Fuchs
Teen love poems often talk about how one person wishes another would think of them as more than a friend, as this teenage love poem does.
Just Friends?
You say that you like me,
But that we’re just friends;
Can I feel the same?
Well I think it depends:
Can I quit breathing fast
Each time you appear?
Will my heart stop its pounding
Whenever you’re near?
I’d like to feel nothing,
And get rid of the thrill.
I wish I’d stop loving you,
But I don’t think I will.
By Joanna Fuchs
Love Prayer
It’s pretty amazing how many searches there are for a love prayer, so here’s a romantic prayer that I hope meets those needs.
Love prayer
I pray the Lord will bless you, Love,
With all that’s good from heaven above.
Lord, please keep him well, secure;
Create in us a love that’s pure,
Unselfish, giving, fond and true,
Fixed on loving and serving You.

Relationship Poems
Love poems can also be relationship poems, as this love verse is.
Love Can Stay Strong
When love first comes and all seems right;
It’s beyond our reason that we two can fight.
Yet fights will come, and anger might thrive,
So let’s try to be sure that our love will survive.
Let’s make our plans with similar goals,
So our wants and desires won’t hit hidden shoals
That set us crashing when things get hard,
So our love can stay strong even when it gets jarred.
For if love can stay strong when it’s tested by fire,
Then we’d share a future that most would admire,
A future where partners would strive side by side,
A future where love would always abide.
By Karl and Joanna Fuchs
This love poem is actually a relationship poem with an important message.
The Lover’s Quarrel
For many years we’ve lived and loved,
Our lives a rich delight.
Then one day’s events caused us to clash,
And the friction led to a fight.
You think that words can’t do a lot,
But words are not inert.
Words have the power to sooth and calm,
But can also cut and hurt.
If thoughts are kept within your head,
They can be dealt with by you alone.
But once the words are past your lips,
They’re like a monument carved in stone.
So always take the time to think,
Of the hurt that can take place,
Whenever a thought is hastily said,
To cause someone loss of face.
It’s hard work to tear the monument down,
To make the hurtful words lose their power.
It’s so much better not to speak the thought,
And just complain to yourself for an hour.
