How do i love thee? Let me count the ways.
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
For the ends of being and ideal grace.
I love thee to the level of every day’s
Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light.
I love thee freely, as men strive for right;
I love thee purely, as they turn from praise.
I love thee with the passion put to use
In my old griefs, and with my childhood’s faith.
I love thee with a love i seemed to lose
With my lost saints,—i love thee with the breath,
Smiles, tears, of all my life!—and, if god choose,
I shall but love thee better after death.

Sonnet 43 by Elizabeth Barrett Browning

Why I Love You: 20 Best Poems About The Reasons I Love You (1)

I love you because you have always refused to give up on me, even when there have been times that i felt completely ready to give up on myself.Unknown

1, The Reasons I Love You © Carrie Sue

I love you because you make me happy
I love you because you make me feel safe and secure
I love your smile
I love the way you say my name
I love the look in your eyes when you tell me you love me
And how you laugh at me when I do something stupid, when others would put me down.
I love the fact that when I’m around you I can be myself and not worry about what you may think of me, because I know you love me for who I am.
No matter what my faults may be.
I love feeling your heart beat with the palm of my hand… reality hits that you are not a dream YOU ARE MINE.
I love the way you wrap your arms around me and hold me really tight, like there is no tomorrow.
And I love the way I feel when your lips barely touch mine for a kiss, the love and emotions that go through me at that moment are; unexplainable.
I love your laugh
I love hearing your voice
I love that you get along with my family and friends, no matter how much you dislike them, or who they are.
And hearing you tell me your stories, you could tell them to me a thousand times, and I will never get tired of them, because they are a part of you.
But the main reason I love you is because…..
You are you!

I love how i feel when i look into your eyes, i see the universe in them, nobody and nothing matters when we are together.Unknown

2, ‘Why I Love You’ © Bernard Snyder

I love you because you’re the other half
that makes me whole,
when we’re apart
I feel helpless and out of control,
when we’re together united as one,
you make me feel I can reach out
and wrap my arms around the sun,
when I’m with you
I don’t feel any sense of pressure,
I’m completely secure
and I feel very, very special,
and if that isn’t enough
to answer why I love you so,
I can easily write another page
but I would hate to ruin the flow.

Like the sense of security that i feel when you hold my hand, i understand that with your support and love i can do everything.Unknown

3, Why Do You Ask Why I Love You? © Anthony Mantegna

Why do you ask why I love you?
You are the lovliest rose in heaven’s garden, have been for a while.
The sweetest girl I’ve ever stumbled into,
I love you for you, and your eyes and your smile.

Your hair, so radiant and red,
Your smile, so perfect and white.
I love you for you, I’ve plainly said.
Your beauty overwhelms me, even in the dead of night.

Yet you still doubt me, still so unsure.
You say you once loved me, but now I’m a different man,
I am beggining to crack under the pressure.
But I’ll tell you once more, I can love you as no other can.

I am lost, confused, unsure what to do,
But at least now you know why I love you.

We are connected, even in the crowd i’ll find your eyes and even ocean noise does not stop me from hearing your heartbeat.Unknown

4, Why I Love You © Udiah

You give to me hope
And help me to cope
When life pulls me down
You bring me around

You teach me to care
And help me to share
You make me honest
With kindness the best

From you I learned love
With grace from above
It’s for you I live
And I want to give

You are the reason
That fills each season
When I hear love I think of you
You are my world and best friend too

I love you because you are so kind, thoughtful and caring
I love you because you are so pleasant, lovely and sharing

You made me the man I am
Thank you

I love you for absolutely no reason at all. I just love you and that is all. Sometimes, love does not need to have a special reason. It just exists.Unknown

5, Why I Love You! © Saadia

I love you because you are simple,
sweet and kind,
I love you because you are always
there to hold my hand!
I love you because you bring out the
best in me, you make me feel special!

I love you because you see good
in everyone, you are always there
to share another’s joy, another’s sorrow;
I love you because you are simply ”you’,
an adorable human being!

You have given me the most precious gifts: your love and friendship, i couldn’t ask for anything more.Unknown

6, I Love You © Amorita Maharaj

I love you.
You’re the joy in my heart,
The sparkle in my eye,
The light in my life.

I love you.
You’re the wind to my wings,
The steps to my dances,
The voice to my songs.

I love you.
You’re the reason for breathing,
The purpose for thriving,
The cause for living.

I love you.
You’re the most caring human being,
The very generous and gentle,
The loveliest of them all.

When you hug me, i understand that you are my home, so secure and peaceful i feel in your arms.Unknown

7, The Reasons I Love You © Anonymous

I love you for that certain smile
that cheers me when I’m blue,
I love you for your tender kiss
that warms me through and through.

I love you for your gentle hand,
your understanding touch,
Your eyes that always seem to say,
“I love you very much.”

I love you for your faith in me,
your sweet and patient ways,
And for the thoughtful things you do
so often without praise.

I love you so for all these things
and many others, too…
But most of all for what I am
whenever I’m with you!

You can substitute friends, mates, and relatives for me, but nobody can substitute you.Unknown

8, Why I Love You © Joyce Wolayo

I got a reason to be with you
I got the feeling i want to be with you
And i got the feeling i should be with you
Because wanting you satisfies me
And loving you shows me who you are
Because the reason i need you is;
No one loves me the way you do.
If i woke up late at night frightened
I would put my head beneath your chest
I would press by body close to your heart
To feel the warmth of your embrace
It is because you remind me deeply of
The vows that were once said by a priest;
That if two people loved each other
Then only death do them part.
Your love reminds of the promise
When two lovers meet and trust,
It is like the galaxy in the sky
That shimmers the night into full blom
The beauty of your love grown so soft
Slides smoothly like a kiss on
My breast firmly imprinted by your
Loving caress that touches the soul.

I love you because you are my biggest dream come true. You are better than any prince in any fairytale that i could have ever hoped for. You are my whole world.Unknown

9, You Asked Me Why I Love You © Guilted Shadow

You asked me why I love you,
and I didn’t know what to say.
The truth is,
I can’t think of a reason not to love you.
The twinkles in your eyes
turn the corners of my mouth
in an upright position.
Your dimpled smile when you look at me
is my warmth when the night is chilled.
The most devine aroma I’ve ever inhaled
is the scent of your body
when I’m falling asleep.
My lungs inhale as yours expell,
for you filter the toxins so that
I only breathe in purified air.
The nourishments my body needs
are provided when we make love.
You asked me why I love you,
but I’ve only just begun.
When haunted shadows invade my sleep,
the sound of your voice awakens me.
Our souls entwine as if one
is the other’s piece
lacking to be completed.
Honeycombed kisses when your lips press mine,
the only flavor I can taste.
Sticky sweet sugar liquifies our bodies
as we feed one another’s hunger.
The telepathic connection from my mind to yours,
meeting needs I never knew I had.
You are not my other half, but my whole.
You are my whole life, my whole desire,
my whole inspiration, my whole reason to breathe.
I love all of you; Heart, mind, body and soul.
I love you completely.

You ask me why I love you,
and I close my eyes and breathe.

Your love created a beautiful world inside my soul, where i escape each time i feel depressed.Unknown

10, Why I Love You © Anonymous

When you ask me why I love you, I don’t know what to say.
I love every part of you in every single way.
But if you want specifics, I’ll try to meet your wish
And do my very, very best to make a simple list.
I love you for your arms that hold me every night.
I love you for your kisses, sometimes strong and sometimes light.
I love you for your patience that never seems to end.
I love you for the fact that I can call you friend.
I love you for your lips that always seem to smile
When you look upon my face for just a little while.
I love you for your eyes that see deep within my soul.
I love you for your ability to always make me whole.
I love you for your honesty, I know you’ll never lie.
I love you for your passion, so much it makes me cry.
I love you for your quirkiness and the little jokes you tell.
I love this and a million other things as well.
You see how hard it is to narrow it all down.
There are far too many reasons, but one thing I have found…
I love you for your brains, but I love your body too.
In short, I love every single thing that has to do with you!

I love you because you have the magic ability to make me smile for absolutely no reason at all. Your presence alone is enough to make me break out into a huge grin.Unknown

11, Reasons Why I Love You © Simon Gurteen

Sometimes at night, when I look to the sky,
I start thinking of you and then ask myself, why?
Why do I love you? I think and smile,
because I know the list could run on for miles.
The whisper of your voice, the warmth of your touch,
so many little things that make me love you so much.
The way that your kiss, fills me with desire,
and how you hold me with the warmth of a blazing fire.
The way your eyes shine when you look at me,
lost with you forever is where I want to be.
The way that I feel when you’re by my side,
a sense of completion and overflowing pride.
The dreams that I dream, that all involve you,
the possibilities I see and the things we can do.
How you finish the puzzle that lies inside my heart,
how that deep in my soul, you are the most important part.
I could go on for days, telling of what I feel,
but all you really must know is my love for you is real

Alsu my love, you are the raindrops in the river of my life.

I love you because your soul is the perfect companion for my soul. That is why you are the only companion that i want to walk through life with.Unknown

12, Why I Love You © Alodia

I love you for so many reasons,
Big and small.
But all of them are wonderful.

I love you for all the special qualities,
That makes you one of a kind,
The only one in the world for me

I love you for all the things you do,
That brings such special meanings to my life.
I love you for the silent times,
When your eyes and arms tell me all I want to know.

I love you,
Just because I do.

Because now,
In the deepest part of my heart,
A place where there was nothing before,
There is love.

I love you because even in the coldest weather you warm me with your love and warmth.Unknown

13, Reasons To Love You! © Louise Coulter

There’s always a reason why people feel a certain way,
Sometimes it’s just hard to explain,
Expressing it isn’t any easier,
The words getting all jumbled is such a big pain.

But I’d like to let you know how I truly feel,
Let the world know why I love you,
Show how much you mean to me,
And how I’ll be with you all the way through.

I like the way you make me smile,
I like the way you make me happy,
I like the way you have so much style,
But that’s not why I love you.

I like the way your smile gives me butterflies,
I like the vibe you give off to me,
I like the way your skin is so soft,
But that’s not why I love you.

You may be beautiful inside and out,
And I love you for that everyday,
But the reason I love you most of all,
Is because you’re you, just you.

There’s only one you,
No one else can even compare,
It’s the same with our love,
The love that we share.

It’s one of a kind,
Unique in its own special way,
No one can describe it, or explain the true meaning,
But they can declare it’s there and it’s not going to stray.

Do you feel the way I feel too,
Do you need me, like the way I need you,
Do you love me the way I love you,
Are we going to make this love true?

You know how I feel,
How you mean the world to me and more,
I need you to see the real reason I love you,
And why you’re the only one, my heart adores.

It’s not your stunning looks,
Or your amazing personality,
It’s how good you make me feel,
And because you’re always you, Just you!

You are the person, with whom i can dance under the rain, when we are together, all problems disappear.Unknown

14, Why I Love You © Jessica Lee Workman

I love you for many reasons
big and small
all of them are wonderful
I love you for all those special qualities that make you a one of a kind
the only one in the world for me
I love you for the things that you do that bring such special meaning to my life
I love you for all the silent times your eyes and arms tell me
all I want to know I love you just because
I do now the deepest part of my heart a place
where there was nothing before there is now…

I love you because we can sit in silence together and things do not get uncomfortable or boring even when it is quiet and nothing is going on. I just love being around you, even when we might not be doing anything.Unknown

15, How Do I © Unknown

How do I say what I think about you
Words to describe your beauty are too few
Kisses from your lips I would forever steal
Mere words can not say what I feel

How do I say what I feel in my heart
I dream of holding you in the dark
I dream of loving you in the day
I search deeply to find the words to say

How do I say what I dream in the night
Dreams so real, I feel you holding me tight
Close my eyes and drift away in sleep
Your sweet kiss I taste in my dream so deep

How do I say what I want you to hear
My arms would hold you forever near
You are truly beautiful, I want you to know
I want to embrace you and never let go

How do I say the words I cannot find
How do I say all the things in my mind
How do I say when the words are too few
How do I say how much I truly love you.

I love you not because you are perfect inside and out, because you are not. But you are perfect for me and that is all that matters.Unknown

16, Just Because I Love You © Theron H. Cyrus

Just because I love you
I will smile at you everyday
Give you my very best
And support you in every way…

Just because I love you
I will give you your heart’s desire
Wake up in love with you daily
And your love I’ll always treasure…

Just because I love you
My heart smile to think of your love
You are my darling, my princess
My sweet angel from above…

Just because I love you
The best in my life you are
I give you my heart forever
And my life, my dreams with you I share

Just because I love you
Hand in hand I’ll walk with you
Treasuring every moment
And letting you know that my love is true

Just because I love you
Yes I love you true and true
Loving you forever
And spending the rest of my life with you

Just because I love you
Anything for you I’ll do
And when it really comes down to it
I’ll always saying that, “I LOVE YOU!!!”

I love you only because it’s you the one i love;Sonnet LXVI by Pablo Neruda

17, Unconditional Love © Whiena Mhey

I wish you knew,
How much I love you,
Don’t know why,
But I love you,
There may be many reasons,
But I can’t find one,
Just wish to stay with you forever,
Just wish to die in your arms,
I don’t want anything in return my man,
Your love is enough for me,
With you, I feel no fear,
I love you!

I need you like a heart needs a beat.Unknown

18, Losing My Mind © Anadia Joubert

Asking myself why I love you
I know there is no reason for me to
Because we have different goals in life
And you will never make me your wife

A child with you, there wil never be
So why is it so hard for me to see
You breaking my heart
Is a chance for my life to start

I lie to everyone, saying I’m over you
And I wish in my heart it was true
That I can just erase you from my mind
Walk away and leave you behind

But when I’m lying in bed at night
All I want, is for you to hold me tight
And my mind drifts away
Remembering the time you asked me to stay

How do I break your spell
How do I escape from this hell
Losing my mind over you
It was so easy for you to give me the shoe

If I know what love is, it is because of you.Hermann Hesse

19, Only Loving You © William Thomas Fearby

I only have to look at you
And you set my heart on fire
Your dark sultry looks
Fills me with a burning desire

You are more to me
Than you will ever know
You are everything to me
That’s why I love you so

Now I have found you
My life feels complete
I will fall down on my knees
And worship at your dainty feet

There is nothing in this world
For you that I wouldn’t do
I would swim the deepest ocean
Just so I could be with you

To live without your love
I know I couldn’t survive
You are the breath in my lungs
That keeps me alive

I long to hold you
And keep you safe with me
And tell you I love you every day
For the rest of all eternity

To hold your body next to mine
When you are feeling weak
To listen to your silence
When you don’t want to speak

To hold you in my strong arms
And watch you as you fall asleep
To kiss your beautiful lips tenderly
Your safety i promise I will keep

No one will ever love you
The same way that I do
I want to spend my whole life
Until the day I die only loving you

You make me want to be a better man.Melvin Udall

20, Trust © Elise Enrille

I gaved my heart
I gaved my soul
For I trusted you with all my hopes

I thought it would be safe and sound with you
That’s why I gave my whole trust in you

But it seemed to be that ived been deceived
For I’ve been in trouble and never been in peace

As time goes by
I found out the truth
That you’ve deceived me

For you to use
For you to play
For you to satisfy your hunger in flesh

I trusted you
And gave my undying love for you
I trusted you my life

But you failed me
And broke my heart
You turned my world up side down
And made my trust in you to vanished as time goes by

Love is that condition in which the happiness of another person is essential to your own.Robert A. Heinlein
