Romantic Poems

Whatever You Are Doing

Whatever you are doing

Wherever you may be

Look to find the brightest star

And fondly think of me

Even if it is hidden

And you cannot see it shine

Close your eyes and imagine

The star that's yours and mine

The moon will be there also

Increasing, decreasing - but bright

Watching over you and I

On this, a winters' night

Whatever you are doing

Always look to the sky

Smile to yourself and remember

It is there for you and I

Forbidden Love

Forbidden is my love for you

Though the feelings are deep and strong

You and I - we belong to another

So being here with you is so wrong.

Yet passion keeps me coming back

I want it from you more and more

The chemistry is electric between us

You fill my being deep down to the core.

You have such a hold over me

Your power - it rushes through my veins

I'm addicted to you - just like heroin

And this feeling is why I remain.

We'll continue to meet in secret

And carry on this passionate affair

Sometimes I think it's all worth the risk

If we were caught, I just wouldn't care.

Don't get me wrong, I love my husband

And I know too that you love your wife

The consequences are unimaginable

Discovery would cause all sorts of strife.

But the magnetic attraction it draws us

We get lost amid its might along the way

How much longer can our forbidden love continue?

When it could be found out any day.

But until such a time may arise

We must enjoy the times that we share

For if they should come to an end

I cannot say that I wouldn't care.

Life would be so less bearable

If I could not feel you inside

So, for this reason, my love

Our attraction we'll continue to hide.

For My Love

All alone I have wandered

Through the struggle and growth of life

There's been good times and bad

And heartache had been rife

I'd never known true love

Then along you came

You love me in a special way

What we want from life is the same

I know that you will be there

When the downs of life bring pain

To wipe away my silent tears

And to make me smile again

Your gift of love brings joy to me

It's something in what you do

I want to say a great big thanks

Just for you being you

Thinking About You

The washings' in the machine

And I'm thinking what to do.

So I've decided to sit down

And write a poem - just for you.

You're special, caring, and lovely

Sincere, gorgeous, intelligent and true

Oh, and did I forget to mention

That you're perfect - because you're you.

You make me so very proud

Every minute, of every day

I'm so glad to be your Wife

Throughout everything - come what may.

I love your little ways

The small things that you do

The little frown that crosses your brow

When you concentrate on something new.

Your smile is so warming

Your eyes - a lovely hue

They shine on me so happily

Make me smile when I'm feeling blue.

I love you so much more

With every passing day

This will go on happening

In so many different ways.

Thank you, my love

My angel - my best friend

For giving your all to me

Until our lives will end.

Passion Storm

Every breath, quicker than before

My heart pounding fast

Your mouth moves - lower

Searching, finding - I gasp

Passion, deep passion

Dances over me

Uncontrollable feelings

Wild and free

Arching - against you

Tingling deep inside

Oh take me - yes take me

On this deep passion ride

Cries of excitement

From deep within us

Bodies, touching frantically

In hot, beautiful lust

Riding the waves

Pure with pleasure

This moment in time

Is ours to treasure

All is calm now

Feeling so warm

Cuddling together

Until the next passion storm

I Wanted You To Know

I never need a reason

But I wanted you to know

Why you mean so much to me

And why I love you so.

I love you for your kindness

And the tenderness you show

Sometimes things are not too good

But you always seem to know.

You really are my soul mate

My lover and my friend

I know you'll always be there

And that your love will never end.

There could never be another

Who in any way can compete

I know I will always love you

Because you've made my life complete.

Strangers

Life itself

Is to see your smile

To hold you close

Just for a while

To kiss your lips

As we embrace

For me to look

At your handsome face

You close your eyes

Me - I watch you

I love the simplicity

In the things that you do

I touch your hair

The colour of sand

Our eyes meet

As you kiss my hand

I knew that I loved you

When you came my way

My darling - who are you?

You never did say

Together

Start at the beginning

Take it nice and slow

Get to know each other

And let the rest follow

You know the others name

You know their favourite song

The nervousness is passing

I'm sure you'll get along

It's been four weeks now

Time spent together

Maybe you'll be closer

Like birds of a feather

Weeks, months - a year

The future is looking good

Love is growing constantly

Just like you hoped it would

One day you're getting married

And now you're husband and wife

Love will conquer everything

For the rest of your life

Is that how it happens

Your heart misses a beat

You think you're in love

The feeling's such a treat

You're feeling all dreamy

Did someone call your name?

If it has happened

Life will never be the same

You think about them constantly

Your stomach's in a knot

Wondering if you love them

You care an awful lot

But how will you know

When the love bug hits thee

You've been spotted by cupid

And the arrows flow free

Are you in love?

Is that what it is

Your heart is pounding

Or perhaps it is his

Yes, now you're sure

It fits like a glove

What you must be feeling

Is that you're in love

Questions

When I am alone

I think of you

I remember your smell

And the things that you do

What are you doing

This moment that is here

Are you laughing I wonder

Yes I ponder, my dear

Do you think of me also

I'd be interested to know

Do you wonder where I am

And what I'm doing also

I hope you are happy

I imagine you are

When we're not together

You seem to be so far

When will I see you

Another thought of mine

I'm hoping it's soon

Well, I'll find out in time

Will you phone me

To arrange our next date

I'll have to wait and see

And leave it all up to fate

Are You?

Is that how it happens

Your heart misses a beat

You think you're in love

The feeling's such a treat

You're feeling all dreamy

Did someone call your name?

If it has happened

Life will never be the same

You think about them constantly

Your stomach's in a knot

Wondering if you love them

You care an awful lot

But how will you know

When the love bug hits thee

You've been spotted by cupid

And the arrows flow free

Are you in love?

Is that what it is

Your heart is pounding

Or perhaps it is his

Yes, now you're sure

It fits like a glove

What you must be feeling

Is that you're in love

For You Valentine

If I could be

Somewhere with you

All alone

Just we two

What would we say?

Things would be bliss

Feelings we would share

I would not want to miss

We will walk along

Looking at the sea

Silent, we may dream

Of things that may be

Whispering to each other

Again and again

Hand in hand, laughing

As we walk in the rain

We would be together

Everything will be fine

A question I would ask

Will you ever be mine?
