I love you, that's all
There should be more words
some other way to say I love you
I want rainbows and rose petals
I want violins when we kiss
I need a sonnet, a ballad
something more than I love you
but I love you, that's all
There is no word, no rhyme
for your arms around me
Nothing that could do justice
to the blue of your eyes
Every smile, every laugh
is a poem all its own
One I wish I could share with the world
I love you is not enough
not when loving you is everything
Words like darling, lover and sweetheart
are not enough, not when you are so much more
All these things, everything, the only thing
but these words are all I've got
to tell you that you're all I've got
you're all I need, all I ever wanted
There should be more words
I need something more than I love you
when your love is all I need
I love you, that's all I can say
I love you, I love you, I love you
That's all
Author notes
1) Most be about something are someone you love very much and why!
Sorry, but it would take a lifetime of poems to try to tell you all the reasons why I love my husband

The most beautiful words in the world...I LOVE YOU...and yet some how they just don't seem enough...sighs...Thank you so much for sharing yours and for entering

Lines 2-3...perfect way of showing just how special true love is, because it's heard to put it into words.
This poem was great and it showed how great love is. Good luck with the contest and great write...keep up the great work. -
i think you didi a great job.it is hard to write a love poem that isnt overly mushy, or something we've heard a million times. while of course a lot of this is familiar to many of us, i think you brought your own style to it that made it somehow fresh.i dont have anything negative or critical to say about this.

Sometimes actions speak louder than words and the words I love you get said so often they seem to lose meaning so a look, a touch mean so much more. I love the write because it reminds me of this.
