1. Example Poem About Love - YOU'RE BACK
Author: Cheryl Hornbeck
You have come back,
And with you,
You brought love.
You have brought back,
Those loving arms,
That holds me tight.
You have brought back,
Those tender lips, that kisses mine.
You have brought back,
That loving smile,
That never left me.
You have brought back,
A new start,
To another love.
You have come back
And with you,
You brought love.
2. Example Poem About Love -THERE'S MORE EVERYTHING....!
There's more to a face, than it's features.More to a day, than it's hours.
More to a mirror, than it's reflection.
More to a conversation, than it's words!
More to a heart, than it's desires.
More to a dream, than it's possibility.
More to a person, than his existence.
More to a story, than it's characters.
More to a celebration, than the occasion.
More to a victory, than to the winner.
More to a tear, than the cries..
More to the vision, than the eyes.
More to the reason, than the smile.
More to the photographer, than the picture!
More to the moments, than the time.
More to the meaning, than the word.
More to the emotion, than the expression.
More to you, than to me.
More to we, than to us.
More to life, than to death.
More to living, than to the years.
More to a life, than it's worth.
More to a death, than it's last breath...

3. Example Poem About Love - Reflections of a Beautiful Morning
- Michael Brieck -
The sun rises above the hillcrest,
As does the joy of my heart;
Rays of warmth and love,
From her I will never depart.
Fresh dew upon the grass,
Young birds chirp in their nests;
I watch her gently sleep,
My love to her I silently profess.
I enjoy the stillness and calm,
Watching as she smiles and dreams;
She brings me to stillness and peace,
Like that of a slow flowing stream.
My heart and soul flow with love,
And I smile as I quietly reflect;
I’ve been handed a sweet princess,
A sweet princess to love and to protect.
A vow to myself I make,
As she quietly sleeps away;
To love and always cherish her,
Until my last breath... until my last day.
4. Example Poem About Love -
When I first met you,i knew nothing about you.
you were just another stranger who was becoming my friend.
time passed and our friendship grew stronger
i got to meet the real you,
your flaws, and your imperfections and i started
falling for you.
i realized i couldnt live without you
thats when we became US
you and I together
everyday you keep reminding me
why I feel in love with you and why I was right
to keep fighting for us instead of giving up
i know our relationship isnt perfect,
but im not looking for perfection
im just looking to love you
and to your source of happiness and trust.
I want to be yours

6. Example Poem About Love - Silent Tears
alone in my room of solitude, watching as a candle flickers,illuminating my small, dark corner of loneliness.
thinking my day over, how selfish i had been.
glittering tears begin to trickle down my face, as i lay awake.
it's hard to love, when you don't have a heart.
so strange to want when you don't have a need.
the candle's flame is dimming, it's wax is melting into tears.
"stay alive" i tell the candle, but it feels like i'm talking to myself.
"how can i live?" cries the candle, "when i have no need?"
the flame dies out and i am left with nothing
but these silent tears trickling down my face.
Example of Sad Love
1. Example of Sad Love - Tears Behind My Eyes
When you look into my eyes they may seem to be empty,
My eyes are full of tears, although you don't see any.
So many times my heart has been filled with pain,
And deep behind my eyes are pockets of tears that are ready to fall like rain.
I know at times I may appear to be tough,
but sometimes to bear the pain and heartache can be too much.
Sometimes I try and hide the tears that I cried just last night,
Tears that soaked my pillow wet long past mornings first light.
I know how it feels to be pushed away by someone you love,
I'm not afraid to admit my tears because I know that there's a far greater love, one that comes from above.
Happiness too will be mine, so until then I'll keep my my head up and eyes towards the skies,
And never allowing anyone to see the tears hidden behind my eyes.

2. Example of Sad Love - Touch Yourself
I understand the whyYet I cannot grasp the how;
But if this is the way you must handle us
I will try to understand somehow.
There is one thing that I ask
As you walk away;
Please create a corner in your heart for me
So at least, there, I can always stay.
You will always be my love
That will never change;
Though we are going separate ways
That fact remains the same.
I know we must let each other go
Circumstances force us to set each other free;
But today, I give back to you . . . your words -
Touch Yourself and You Touch Me.
3. Example of Sad Love - Dream Deferred
Does it dry upLike a raisin in the sun?
Or fester like a sore--
And then run?
Does it stink like rotten meat?
Or crust and sugar over--
like a syrupy sweet?
Maybe it just sags
like a heavy load.
Or does it explode?
4. Example of Sad Love -If those I loved were lost
If those I loved were lost
The Crier's voice would tell me --
If those I loved were found
The bells of Ghent would ring --
Did those I loved repose
The Daisy would impel me.
Philip -- when bewildered
Bore his riddle in!
5. Example of Sad Love - I Hate Myself For Losing You
Here feeling so downKnowing you won't be around
In the rain all alone
Facing the world on my own
I pushed you away
But I wanted you to stay
Now I'm here all by myself
Because now you're with someone else.
A girl here with a broken heart
Been crying since the day we part
Boy, I didn't want you to go
I just want you to know
When we kissed I still feel it on my lips
I still hear you in my dreams saying you love me
I still feel your hands entwined with mine
I miss when we were together everything was fine.
I look at our picture and cry myself to sleep
My tears so sad they also weep
I still listen to our song
Reminds me of the times we were strong
My heart feels so sad and blue
I hate myself for losing you.
6. Example of Sad Love - If You Or Me
If I fall, will you catch me?
If I cry, will you hold me?
If I hurt you, will you ever forgive me?
We don't live that far apart,
We could see each other everyday if we wanted,
But baby that will never happen.
If you fall, I will be right there to catch you.
If you cry, I will be right there to comfort you.
If you hurt me, I will always forgive you.
Because I really love you.
I fell in love from the moment I laid eyes on you.
You are always on my mind.
I can't ever stop thinking of you.
I always tell my friends about you.
Baby, you are the love to my heart,
and you are the sun when I wake up in the morning,
and you are the moon when I fall asleep at night.
You are the stars shining down on me,
You are the angels up above me.
You are the love of my life,
And I hope you feel the same way about me.
Because I never want to lose you,
I talk to you everyday,
and everynight before bed,
and when I fall asleep,
You are ALWAYS in my dreams.
I don't know if there is a way to get you out of my head.
But I don't ever want to forget about you.
Because you are the love of my life.
You are the one and only.
I never thought of being in love,
until the day I met you.
You are so amazing and I love you so much,
I hope you love me,
because you are the most important person in my life.
