Poetry About Relationships
Relationships are a common topic for poetry because they offer opportunities for both positive and negative emotions. Love, joy, and companionship can be found in good relationships, while heartache, loneliness, and betrayal are experienced in bad ones. In either case, the intense emotions involved in relationships make them ideal subjects for poetry.

Love and relationship poems
Poetry about relationships is often about the ups and downs of being in a relationship. It can be about the love, the hurt, the pain, and the happiness that comes with being in a relationship. It can be about the good times and the bad times. It can be about hope and despair.
1. The Petal Spell
i saw her smile from a million miles away as she approached me. with the gentlest of embrace she greeted me and with soft lips to my earlobe she whispered words that vanquish my fears and blues and straightaway i fell under her petal spell. we spent time in the company of intellectual conversations and she captivated my interest and curiosity. and gradually i surrendered to the powers of her petal spell. she knows how to make me smile even in the most gloomy situations, she has the Midas effect on almost everything she touches in my life. and just like that i fell headlong into her petal spell. one day she trusted me enough with her petals like she trusted the butterfly and she let me taste her nectar. ever since that day i have sunk deeper in her petal spell.
2. Longer Next Time
she kissed me like the morning sun and my days became brighter and warmer. so i asked her politely, can you make it longer next time? we got engrossed in an intellectual conversation but time and our respective responsibilities forced us to leave in the middle of it all. so i told her we need to make it happen longer next time. once in my dreams, i kissed her sugary lips but in the heat of the dream i got a wake-up call from my roommate. so with frustration, i informed him to let me sleep longer next time. she embraced me as she said goodbye and i had to interrupt her departure by asking her, can you make it last a bit longer next time? there is something about her that makes me feel like i can never get enough of her. despite how much time we spend together and how much we enjoy each other’s company, when it comes time to leave i always feel the need to tell her, we need to do this longer next time.
3. Confused
she came like a thief on a moonless night and took everything i possessed. she gently stole my innocence, robbed me of my timidity, stripped me of my cultivated pride, unlocked the steel vault to my hidden fantasies and intentionally exposed the freak in me. she came like a skilled thief and caught me by surprise and she took almost everything now i am left breathless, senseless, and distressed, because she left with all my fledgling hopes and blossoming dreams. what a woman. what an experience. what unintentional destruction she has left in her stiletto path. she came like a veteran thief on a moonless night and took everything i had.

4. Confessions (freeing feelings)
every so often they say confessions are good for the soul. so today i got a confession. these seething emotions were always there from the very start: the instant crush on you, the lustful yearnings to be with you, the petal throbbing as a result of wanting you, the imaginary longings, the multiplicities of fantasies, the numerous thoughts of things i want and wanted to do to with you. these heated feelings were there from the very beginning. now this opportunistic moment has created the perfect setting for me to be bold enough to tell you how i have been feeling for so long. i have always wanted you, silently i always admired you from the corners of my eyes, i adore your sweet smile, somehow you always set my emotions afire and give wings to my unfulfilled fantasies. its been such a relief to say all the things i have been feeling for ages. thanks for lending me your listening ears. the wise often say every so often confessions are good for the soul. now that i have confessed to you, what are you going to do about all of my confessions?
5. Her Exceptional Smiles (for Shakkeene)
effortless perfection, that’s how i would describe her smiling. it wouldn’t be an exaggeration for me to conclude that she was fairy dust sprinkled with the rarest collection of smiles. she possesses smiles that reflects an assortment of the best smiles from the ancestors of yore. her smiles are extraordinary in so many ways. her pleasant smile will tease you, her gentle smile will please you. her radiant smile will mesmerise you, her charming smile will seduce you, her satisfied smile will bring you joy, her scintillating smile will hypnotise you, her carefree smile will liberate you from bleak places, and her humorous smile will frolic with your unbridled imagination in inconceivable ways. this is not equity. no one woman should possess such a glistening array of mind-altering smiles.
6. Turn Me Over
sometimes it's good to surrender, give up the need to be in control just go with the flow. my position of dominance was not cutting it anymore so she turned me over in one clean and swift motion. she introduced me to motions i have never seen or experienced before. but i willingly let myself go with the flow of the moment. that flow caused sensations that left me gasping, clawing, twitching, yearning, and singing to satisfactory heaven. she turned me over and taught me a lesson in the sweetness of uncertainty.

7. Un-See
i saw you today and now i cannot unsee you. you sauntered into the halls of my welcoming mind now i can’t get rid of you. what did you do to me? i am remembering your comforting countenance that set my uncertain mind at ease and give my thoughts wings. i saw your flashlight smile today and now i cannot unsee you. you have taken a permanent seat at my creative table and you are now dining with my wildest writing fantasies. i saw your sweet face today and now i cannot unsee you. i heard your tantalising whispers, digested your every word, heard the sincerity in your declarations and felt the passion in everything you said. i fell for your uniqueness today and now i cannot unsee you.
8. Her World
i never knew how easily this visible world could dissolved into nothingness until i spent a moment in her world. i gazed keenly into the depths of her engaging eyes and a whole new world appeared incrementally, i got captivated by her dimpled smiles and caught up in a world of sweet possibilities, i felt her buttery skin and suddenly an unfamiliar and exciting rhythm dominated the left side of my chest. she giggled and laughed and the music she made took me away to soothing places where i tasted and felt sweet reverie. she spoke with such intellectual fluency and i was bedazzled by her wittiness, her analytical prowess, her insightfulness, her wealth of extensive knowledge and mind absorbing conversation. i got a whiff of her natural bouquet and i had to swiftly bridle my galloping imagination and out-of-control emotions. until today, i never knew how easy it was for this complex and sometimes confusing world to fade away until i spent some time in her world.
9. The Guilt Complex
she kissed me and the purest of love flowed from her lips, and immediately i knew i would never be able to return that unconditional love she gave so effortlessly. then for the first time guiltiness introduced itself to me. we sat under the welcoming shade of a blooming tree and she told me her untold stories because she said her spirit trusted me. silently i started having a conversation with guilt just because i questioned my ability to carry the burdens of her trust. she looks at me with so much assuredness, she believes in me even when i don't believe in myself, she trusts me with her life and her love and this makes me feel guilty. she supports me in ways i am yet to truly fathom. i often ask myself i am deserving of her and then silently retreated to my guilty room.
