Love Poetry Please

Okay, so a little cliche, but I'm in the mood for some lovey-dovey stuff, because today marks an amazing year and two months with my boyfriend. He's my everything, literally. So, enough about me...

All I want are just simple love poems. They don't have to be rhyming or in a form. Write it however you want; it's YOUR work of art.

However... I ask that you please follow a few guidelines:

1) No bashing, or anything offensive or along those lines.
2) Please keep swearing to a minimum; I don't particularly mind, but I do not know how it would 'boost' the quality of your poem.
3) Cliche is okay, but don't overdo it please. I don't want to read the same thing over and over and OVER again!
4) Please attempt to use proper spelling and grammar... we've all over-looked this at least once before, but please read over your piece before submitting it.


Note, that the above are merely guidelines and you can choose to completely ignore them if you wish. I don't want to restrict anyone's creativity but I do ask that you please follow #1 at the very least. If not, it may qualify you for a disqualification. If I find anything inappropriate such as that, I will not hesitate to disqualify it, or if it is only mild I may give you a chance to correct it.

Sorry for the rambling, I just like to talk.

I took quite a long break from AllPoetry, and now I'm back and expecting some great works of art so don't disappoint me!

Good luck to everyone !!
