Q&A for How to Write a Love Poem

Write to him exactly how you feel and say exactly what you mean, no beating around the bush and hidden meanings, as you want to leave no doubt about your feelings. Use strong verbs such as need, want, love and desire.

Try to be confident. You don't have to give it directly to him, maybe just put it in a place that you know he will find it.

Just say what is on your mind and if he doesn't feel the same, just say can we forget about it and can we still be friends? If he is a good friend he will understand and if not, you're well rid of someone who isn't kind at heart.

Just write it, ask a trusted friend to read it and see what they think, then if they think it's fine you can give it.

Write a poem about your story. Write about your ups and downs and all your accomplishments together. Make it a family affair and ask your kids for help.

Write a poem telling her all the things you loved about her and find extraordinary in her. Tell her that she was your sun, your moon and your stars and that without her, the light has all but gone. Tell her that she is your tree of strength, your moonbeam of beauty and your rock of all ages. Ask that she reconsider leaving you and return to be by your side. Then pluck up the courage to send it to her or go and read it to her in person.

You should probably keep it to yourself until they break up, if they do. Then, if you feel confident, tell him how you feel. But if their relationship still seems to be going strong after a long time, it would be best to just accept it and try to move on.

Focus your poem on all the great times you had with him. Describe a blissful future together, and how you are looking forward to the journey there with him.

It will reflect how you feel, without sounding to much like just a normal sentence. Have people read it and give you their feedback.

You just have to feel the power of your love to write a poem.

A first-time poet could mimic love poems written by other poets, such as William Shakespeare. The first-time poet must give credit to the poet he or she is mimicking, however.

Write about some of your best moments together, and maybe what you hope to achieve with her in the future, should she choose to return. Tell her how you feel about her, and how much better your life is with her in it. Say what's in your heart.

Then maybe she doesn't understand you. It would be very sad if someone shunned work that came from your heart, true and sincere, that you put a lot of thought and effort into. If she does giggle at it, that may be because she doesn't know what to do upon receiving something romantic.

Write out all the things you think about love, then arrange them into verses.

Just be confident. Even if he doesn't like it, the feelings from him won't change, he'll still be your friend. At worst you can learn where you need to improve.

Brainstorm by writing down the first words that come into your mind, even if it seems scattered. Then go back and read through what you've written to connect some of your thoughts and ideas.

I would think this through carefully first, it sounds like maybe this person doesn't really have feelings for you, and maybe feels like they made a mistake. If you really want to write the poem, just write about how the kiss made you feel, how the person makes you feel, or maybe even how you wish the event might have gone differently.

If your crush thinks love is "gross," writing them a love poem is probably not the best idea. If you don't know them well, try to get to know them as a friend first and then try to make the transition to something more. If you're already friends, try just telling them directly that you have a crush on them.

The first step should be to brainstorm some ideas. Think about all the things you love about your girlfriend, and the reasons why you love spending time with her. Make sure your poem is sincere and heartfelt; this will make it all the more beautiful. Don't rush it; take your time to think it over so that it's your best work.

You shouldn't need to do anything any differently if your crush is someone of the same gender.

Ask him, or have a friend ask him.

Sure! That's a good idea. However, it can quickly become forced, so make sure it keeps flowing naturally and use solid rhyme.

You should probably wait until he grows up a little, or pick someone else. Then use the suggestions above. Put the poem in an envelope and give it or mail it to him.

Just do your best! Write what you feel. Try to include some figurative language, like similes and metaphors. When you feel like you have a good first draft, show your poem to a few people and ask for constructive criticism. Even better, try to find a poetry class in your area! Read more poetry to get a better idea of what good poetry looks like. Most importantly, practice!

Have an honest discussion with her. Let her know how you feel about her and make sure you are treating her well. If she wants to be with someone else, there's not much you can do.

Try alluding to inside jokes, things you have in common, little things about you (style, interests), etc.

Do it anonymously, and within it say that you like the person very much, but known a relationship won’t happen.

Type the poem but don't sign it. Don't tell anyone about the poem unless you're sure they'll keep your identity secret.
