Welcome to our Collection of Poems for LOVER'S!

These I Can Promise

I cannot promise you a life of sunshine;
I cannot promise riches, wealth, or gold;
I cannot promise you an easy pathway
That leads away from change or growing old.

But I can promise all my heart's devotion;
A smile to chase away your tears of sorrow;
A love that's ever true and ever growing;
A hand to hold in yours through each tomorrow.

I will stay in love with you forever...

How can I stay in love with you forever?
How can we make our relationship into
a lifetime of sharing and joy?

In order to stay in love forever
I must first find the right person to love
and I have, in you.

In order to stay in love forever
we both must understand each other
and ourselves very well
and we must be completely honest
with each other at all times.
We both must have our own goals and interests
and actively pursue them.
We both must have complete freedom of thought
and we must encourage each other
to follow our dreams.
We must always be fair, kind and supportive
of each other.

We must dedicate ourselves to being
equal partners in all that we feel
and in all that we do.
We must promise each other that
we will always create time
to just appreciate each other and our love
and that we will never be lazy
and take our love for granted.

In order for me to stay in love
with you forever,
and have a relationship that is
a lifetime of sharing and loving,
I must really pledge myself
to this wonderful commitment
and I must really want to stay in love
with you forever,
and I do.

I Want to Live and Love with you....

I want to live and love with you and be one forever;
to be near you so I can reach out and touch you;
to make love with you, talk with you,
and be silent with you; to hold you close every night
and wake up with you each morning.

I want to share my secrets with you and be honest with you;
to understand and respect you, accepting you as you are;
to find shelter in you when I am afraid and hold you when I need warmth;
to be with you through all seasons, walking with you in the sunshine
and cuddling you in the cold.

I want to care for you when you are ill
and be joyful with you when you are happy;
to grow old with you and be with you until the end of time.
I want all of these things with you only.
I would do all of these things for you only.
To you only, I give all of my love.

I Love You More Than
I Have Ever Loved
Anyone Else

In the morning
when the sun
is just starting to light the day
I am awakened
and my first thoughts are of you.

At night
I stare at the dark trees
silhouetted against the quiet stars
I am entranced into a complete peacefulness
and my last thoughts are of you.

I love you.

I Love You,
Even Though Things
Are Not Always Perfect Between Us

No one is perfect
therefore no
relationship can be perfect.
Often by seeing
the dry brown petals
in a rose
you appreciate more
the vivid red petals
that are so beautiful.

At the core of our relationship
there is a very deep respect and love
for one another.
So as we continue
to grow and change as individuals
our relationship will continue
to grow stronger
and become more beautiful.
I love and appreciate you so much.

Hug O' War

I will not play at tug o' war.
I'd rather play at hug o' war,
Where everyone hugs
Instead of tugs.
Where everyone giggles
And rolls on the rug,
Where everyone kisses,
And everyone grins,
And everyone cuddles,
And everyone wins.

Tutti Fruitti Lovesong

You are my darling CUMQUAT.

Oh, you're my PEACHy pie,
I think you are the BERRIES,
The APPLE of my eye

Don't make me MELON-choly,
Please be my HONEY DEW,
'Cause oh, my sweet PAPAYA,
I'm BANANAS over you!

I would be oh, so GRAPEful
If you'd just say you care,
For it takes two to MANGO,
And we're a PEACHy PEAR.

Oh, ORANGE you a little
COCONUTS for me too?
Please say you'll be mon CHERRY.
I'm so GUAVA over you.

Concerning Love

I wish she would not ask me if I love the
Kitten more than her.
Of course I love her. But I love the Kitten,
too; and It has Fur.
