Love Poems

What Actually Love Is

Why do we close our eyes when we sleep? When we cry?
When we imagine? When we kiss?
This is because the most beautiful things in
the world are unseen.

We are all a little weird and life’s a little weird
and when we find someone whose weirdness
is compatible with ours,
we join up with them and fall in
mutual weirdness and call it love.

There are things that we never want to let go of,
people we never want to leave behind,
but keep in mind that letting go isn’t the end of the world,
it’s the beginning of a new life.

Happiness lies for those who cry, those who hurt,
those who have searched and those who have tried.
For only they can appreciate the importance of the people
who have touched their lives.

A great love? It’s when you shed tears and still
you care for him,
it’s when he ignores you and still you long for him.
It’s when he begins to love another and yet you still smile
and say I’m happy for you.

If love fails, set yourself free,
let your heart spread its wings and fly again.
Remember you may find love and lose it, but when love dies,
you never have to die with it.

The strongest people are not those who always win
but those who stand back up when they fall.

Somehow along the course of life,
you learn about yourself and realize
there should never be regrets,
only a lifelong appreciation of the choices you’ve made.

A true friend understands when you say, I forgot,
waits forever when you say, just a minute,
stays when you say leave me alone,
opens the door even before you knock and says can I come in?

Loving is not how you forget but how you forgive,
not how you listen but how you understand,
not what you see but how you feel,
and not how you let go but how you hold on.

It’s more dangerous to weep inwardly rather than outwardly.
Outward tears can be wiped away while secret tears scar forever.

In love, very rarely do we win
but when love is true, even if you lose,
you still win just for having the tingle of loving someone
more than you love yourself.

There comes a time when we have to stop loving someone
not because that person has stopped loving us
but because we have found out
that they’d be happier if we let go.

It’s best to wait for the one you want than settle for one that’s available.
Best to wait for the one you love than one who is around.
Best to wait for the right one
because life is too short to waste on just someone.

Sometimes the one you love turns out to be the one who hurts you the most,
and sometimes the friend who takes you into his arms
and cries when you cry
turns out to be the love you never knew you wanted.

If you really love someone never let go,
don’t believe that letting go means that you love best,
instead fight for your love,
that’s what true love is.

Laugh to your heart’s content; you cannot go
through life without it.

  6. Love would have been what the lovers want from it to be. Unfortunately, Love has been overhauled by the materialistic, personality and behavioral nature and attitude of those engaged in.

  8. WOW….WOW,
    WHAT AN INCREDIBLE POEM. WHAT INCREDIBLE WORDS.

    I HAVE BEEN HOPING AND PRAYING THAT THE MAN I WAS GOING WITH FOR 14 1/2 YRS. WAS GOING TO COME BACK TO ME. (WE BROKE UP OVER 6 MONTHS AGO). HE WAS THE ONE (& ONLY ONE) THAT I CAN TRULY SAY THAT I LOVED IN MY 58 YEARS OF LIFE.

    THE WORDS TO THIS POEM ARE THE MOST BEAUTIFUL THAT I HAVE EVER READ. I STILL BELIEVE IN LOVE AND HOPE THAT I FIND ANOTHER.

    THANK YOU, THANK YOU FOR THIS MOST BEAUTIFUL POEM ABOUT LOVE.

  12. Hmmm!
    That’s true Love, I feel the emotions like those of William Wordsworth and Oliver Goldsmith. i wish such love exists if it does then I would wish to have some one who can feel the facts.
    But the truth is when you love like this you are always at the receiving end….
    May be in a fairy land….

  18. “wow what and amazing poem about love… =) “Real Love Is Always Fated. It Has Been Arranged Before Time. It Is The Most Meticulously Prepered Of Coincidence. And Fate, Of Course,Is Simply a secular Term For The Will Of God, and Coincedince For His Grace.” =)
