In the spirit of Valentine’s week, I’m back with a fourth of edition of short poems about love.

1) I LOVE YOU
I don’t care if it’s too early
I know what I feel 
I love you
And it’s okay
If you don’t feel the same way too

2) IT’S TIME
Let’s set the date
It’s time, no need to wait
to change my name and accept our fate
You’re mine and I’m yours,
for a hundred years times eight

3) WHEN IT COMES TO LOVE
When it comes to love
I give it all my heart
and everything I’ve got
because when it comes to love
it comes to you first
and every other thing is next

4) LOVE EXISTS
You’ve made me believe 
that love exists again
And if that’s the only thing
I get out of this
I don’t mind
because it’s more than enough

5) LOVING YOU FROM A DISTANCE
Loving you from a distance
has taught me a lot of lessons
but the one I value most
is that you aren’t meant to be with
everyone you love 

Which one will you say to the love of your life?
