A Unique Collection of Long Love Poems
Let’s begin with the fiery phase of love, as it is often the most enchanting period in a relationship. Let the emotions soar!
Á. István Galambos: Need (A Love Poem)
Always, it’s what’s far away that we desire.
Always, it’s their arms that we require.
If you need them like a crumb of bread,
They might vanish within a fleeting thread.
If the distance feels a bit too far,
They’re the thought that fills your every hour.
When they gaze at you and truly care,
You must return the love, so rare!
Yet we all know, it’s undeniably true:
What we crave the most is what’s out of view.
All we desire is their embrace, so true.
Á. István Galambos: Christmas Gift (A Love Poem)
Christmas is here, and my wish has come true,
A toy car under the tree—oh, how I’ve yearned for you.
Christmas is here, and my dreams came alive,
Toy soldiers marched proudly across my bedside.
Christmas is here, and my request has been granted,
In my room, a stereo with five CDs enchanted.
But this Christmas, my dreams fell apart—
That car I still own is missing, breaking my heart.
This Christmas, my wishes went unfulfilled,
My soldier’s footsteps faded—my joy was stilled.
Christmas is here, and the stereo’s gone too,
Its music vanished, taking warmth out of the blue.
Christmas has come, but my heart still feels cold—
The car, the stereo, the soldier—I miss them, untold.
Á. István Galambos: Fantasy (A Love Poem)
The night is silent and dark as it deepens,
The door lock clicks, my heart quickens.
Tense, I wait for you to come home,
Footsteps echo on the floor’s stone.
Quietly, the window opens wide,
Your voice’s echo lingers inside.
Your memory strikes me like an iron dart,
Walls press closer, but you own my heart.
Your soul has found a home in mine,
Within my heart, no wrath can align.
There’s no escape from this haven,
You’re the comfort my soul has craven.
I long to see your lips convey,
Three simple words: “I love you,” they’ll say.
Á. István Galambos: Gift (A Love Poem)
This year, they asked what gift I’d prefer,
I answered, “Nothing—your smile I’d rather.”
They asked again what under the tree I’d seek,
I replied, “Nothing—your eyes make me weak.”
Their questions persisted—what is my desire?
I said, “Your hair is all that I require.”
“What do you wish for?” they probed once more,
And I answered, “Your lips are my greatest store.”
Over and over, they inquired what I’d name,
And I revealed, “Your nose is my treasured flame.”
Finally, they asked who walks in my heart,
I simply said, “It’s you—my most cherished part.”
Á. István Galambos: I Believe
I believe life is worth living when there’s a reason to rise,
When hope lights your mornings and dreams fill your skies.
I believe the past doesn’t vanish; it resides,
In memories that endure, defying time’s tides.
I believe even death holds no dread,
If hope is the refuge where the soul is fed.
Long Love Poems on Heartbreak and Lost Love
Unfortunately, love isn’t always about fulfillment. Pain, loneliness, and, in the worst cases, separation often accompany it. Here are a selection of poems that capture this bittersweet side of love.
Á. István Galambos: Relationship (A Love Poem)
I could expect no more
Than a word or two.
No more could I hope for,
Than a painful adieu.
Á. István Galambos: Until I Move On (Winner of the Randivonal Love Poetry Contest)
The mornings feel different when someone’s there to wait,
Boundless emotions rise, leaving no room for hate.
Though seeing you still fills my heart with delight,
I can’t wait forever; I must say goodbye tonight.
The mornings are brighter when I wake with you,
Echoes of sacred songs, a love so true.
Yet the time has come; I can’t wait for long,
I’ll move away, though it feels so wrong.
