Short rhyming love poems

Lyric poetry is a genre that, unlike epic poetry and dramatic poetry, does not attempt to tell a story but instead is of a more personal nature. Rather than depicting characters and actions, it portrays the poet's own feelings, states of mind, and perceptions. While the genre's name, derived from "lyre," implies that it is intended to be sung, much lyric poetry is meant purely for reading.

Though lyric poetry has long celebrated love, many courtly love poets also wrote lyric poems about war and peace, nature and nostalgia, grief and loss. Notable among these are the 15th century French lyric poets, Christine de Pizan and Charles, Duke of Orleans. Spiritual and religious themes were addressed by such medieval lyric poets as St. John of the Cross and Teresa of Ávila. The tradition of lyric poetry based on spiritual experience was continued by later poets such as John Donne, Gerard Manley Hopkins and T. S. Eliot.

Although the most popular form for western lyric poetry to take may be the 14-line sonnet, as practiced by Petrarch and Shakespeare, lyric poetry shows a bewildering variety of forms, including increasingly, in the 20th century, unrhymed ones. This the most common type of poetry, as it deals intricately with the author's own emotions and views.

The one I love 

by Noel Garcia

The one I love with all my might.
The one I'm thinking of tonight.
The one that helps me make things right.
The one I long to kiss goodnight.
The one I dream of when I sleep at night.
The one I think of when I hug my pillow tight.
The one that makes me happy when she comes into my sight.
The one I'm not giving up without putting up a fight.
- To "The One" that changed my life.

The person I thought I knew 

by Harmony

Looking around I see you,
thinking you were the person I knew.
You were in my life once,
when I felt so sad so blew.
Deep down and above,
my love shares your love.
Looking around I still see you
thinking you were the person I knew
Our love has grown apart
but it has from the start
I'm still thinking... you were the person I knew.
You took away my fears,
and then again you took away my fun.
Asking myself what you have done to me,
but know you're my fear and it all has just begun.
Thanking God my fear has ended
and I'm just now realizing that I didn't know,
the person that I thought I knew.

I Believe 

Anon

I believe in miracles and dreams that will come true. I believe in tender moments and friendship, through and through.

I believe in stardust and moonbeams all aglow. I believe there's magic and more there than we know.

I believe in reaching out and touching from the heart. I believe that if we touch a gift we can impart.

I believe that if you cry your tears are not in vain. And when you're sad and lonely, others know your pain.

I believe that when we laugh a sparkle starts to shine. And I just know that spark will spread from more hearts than just mine.

I believe that hidden in the quiet of the night,
there's magic moths and gypsies a fairy and a sprite.

I believe that if you dance the dances of your heart, that greater happiness will find a brand new way to start.

I believe the gifts you have are there for you to share. And when you give them from the heart, the whole world knows you care.

I believe that if you give, even just to one,
that gift will grow in magnitude before the day is done.

I believe that comfort comes from giving part of me.
And if I share with others, there's more for all to see.

I believe that love is still the greatest gift of all, and when it's given from the heart then not one of us will fall.
