40 Long-Distance Relationship Poems For Him And Her

Long-Distance Love Poems For Him

1. Time And Distance

Destiny’s hands shows the right chosen way
When to let go, when to cut loose in its rhyme
He has the final say to our paths in time

To what so ever draws in our soft palms
My love will perpetually be true to your heart
Time is passing by, something we can’t undermine
Time travels without a pause to croon its chant

Even distances cuddle us, meddling in our affairs
my love will forever remain to see your smiling face
I’ll be your shinning star, your guiding light
Watching you from the distance, day and night

For my love is here, no matter what you do
I shall be here by your side, loving you
We will always be each in others hearts
Even if the oceans divide us apart

Even distance has been a thorn in our lives
Whiles love is the rose that bonded our hearts
our lips pine for each others touch
promise, the oceans will not blow away our love

Our hands long to be hand in hand
Our hearts yearn to live entwine
For the rest of our lives
Oh I pray one day fate delivers you into my arms

—CatrinaHeart

2. Heart Song

Hearts could fly, long-distance relationship poem

Image: IStock

Until our final kissgoodbye
I didn’t know that hearts could fly
But mine flew away
With you that day.

Distance, so few thoughts I gave,
Until you had to leave that day.
But in that moment I could feel
That distance is heavy, hard, and real.

I didn’t know that heartstrings tied
And tangled up so much inside.
Until the last smile you sent my way
When you had to go that day.

I never thought that time could seem
So cold and cruel that I could scream.
Until the long hours after you’d gone,
As my heart cried until the dawn.

Now I am just holding on
For the moment our love’s sweet song
Together loud and true will ring
As so in love our hearts will sing.

—Anonymous

3. Inhale

I woke,
And I buried my nose in your shirt:
It still smells like you
In your absence.

It is such a comfort,
To me, your lover,
On the small island.

We are far in miles,
But I have your shirt
To inhale.

—Anonymous

4. Everything Is So Confusing

Everything is so confusing
not being able to be with you.
It’s making me crazy,
and I don’t know what to do.
You mean everything to me.
I hope we never break apart,
because I’m inlove with you
and you have a special place in my heart.
Not a day goes by
that I don’t think about you.
I want to be with you forever.
It’s crazy, but I do.
You took away my pain.
You’re always in my dreams.
I’ll love you forever.
At least that’s how it seems.

—Kirstie

5. Miles Away

Long-distance relationship poem

Image: IStock

Long distance
1500 miles
44 days to walk
Who cares? If you love me
As I love you
We’re not apart
Despite the miles
We are together
Together at heart
Distance matters to minds
But hearts don’t care

We fell in love
Long distance
We’ll stay in love
Long distance

Our hearts are together
Though we’re far apart
Though wefell in love
Long distance

—Anonymous

6. Piece Of You

When you said had to go,

I knew I’d never make it through
Unless I had a piece of you
To help me make it through the day

And help me keep the tears at bay.

So, I keep a bit of you
Inside my heart through all I do
So, when I end up feeling blue,

It’s there to brighten up my mood.

A bit of your laughter, your smile, too,
It’s there inside my heart so true.
I keep it close and hold it tight
Because you’re my sweetest

love and light….

—AmyFinley

Long-Distance Love Poems For Her

7. $ealìng Thé Dìstancê

Yo! Girl, this one’s fo you..
And no matter how hard it may seem,
I promise we’re gonna make it through.

我试着给你打电话,因为我有一个担心me and that’s filling me up.
What if i’m losing you love.. Will i ever love to see those 7 seven colors above?
You’re the only one thing that makes me all feel good..
Then why don’t you let me feel the way i should?
May be you should come a lil’ bit closer now,
And make me understand if i’ve ever been too rude.

I’ve been standing here for so long..
My heart aches to see myself alone.
Hazes filled the way to the brighter days,
Nor i can turn back to where i belong.

It’s hard to keep my feets on the ground,
But i can’t wait girl to see you back in the town.
Despite of all the miseries, i believe one day we will this series.
But till that time if i fail to stand still,
Girl won’t you help me to get back on my knees..?

Distance is all you have to cover now..
If you care for tears i’m crying out..
And i’ll give myself, i’ll give my all,
To feel you breathing right inside my heart.

—MenimeSoul

8. Long Distance Love

Humble beginnings are the ones that were hard
Momma crying, begging me not to go so far
I held my tears as I held her tight
I said momma forgive me, but I need a start
I’ve got dreams to realize
A desire to leave this place
A child I was chased
An adult misplaced
But momma don’t worry
I remember what you’ve taught me
Patience is a virtue and that it is key
That strength is weakness, unless I get on my knee
To help others, that’s one way to plant a tree
You taught me fairness and honesty
You’ve done a lot, as you were both of my parents
I learned to let go of my anger
As I learned from your patience
Your generous heart gave so much love
You still thought it was not enough
I pray to the one above
That soon I see you laugh
我iss your smile and I miss you smell
Until then, I wish you well
Truly Yours, my sweet angel!

—BilalKhoukhi

9. Long Distance Love

Long-distance love

Image: IStock

Long distance love, how are you?
Are you thinking of me too?
I thought about you again today,
Just hoping that you are okay,
Can’t you please pick up the phone?
As I sit here all alone.

Long distance love, do you recall?
The times it seemed we had it all,
The times we thought would never end,
But now I need more than a friend,
Everything could be so right,
If you would just come home tonight.

Long distance love, can’t you see?
How much you really mean to me,
Sometimes it seems to be my fate,
To have to sit at home and wait,
But if this is what I have to do,
I will always be here for you.

—Alan W.Jankowski

10. When I See You Again

When I see you again, it will be like seeing the most beautiful sunrise and the brightest star on the clearest night.
When I see you again, my heart will be filled with love as It was the day you left, never missing a beat growing stronger every passing day.
When I see you again, time will have seemed to stop, thinking only of the future and what it holds.
When I see you again, it can’t come soon enough for it seems like forever.
When I see you again, I will spend the rest of my life making you happier than you’ve ever been, so I never have to not see you again!

—Sterling Seitz

11. Slipping

Together
I am gleaming opal
Bright
Full
Shining, Shining

Apart
I am faded porcelain
Dull
Fragile
Breaking, Breaking

Dark night meets darker sea

I am slipping
Can you feel me?

Something to hope
Across the miles pull me to you
Safely into your embrace

Forever out of reach

12. I Can’t Stop Thinking Of You!

I look at the clock thinking of you

Image: IStock

I look at the clock,
It says 1:41,
I know thinking of you I’ll never be done.
You run through my mind,
and occupy all my time,
Wondering why you are gone and why you are not mine,
I think of you constantly,
For some reason I can’t stop,
Knowing that for always,
You’ll forever have my heart,
My days go by so slow, because you run through my head.
I said I love you forever,
Isn’t that enough to say,
You also haunt my dreams if you know what I mean,
我经常醒来糖果和霜。
Why do I sleep by myself,
I’m alone in my bed,
I know I’ll be thinking of you,
Till the day I’m dead,
Now still all this thought,
Just run through my brain,
Can’t stop thinking of “blank”
I think I’m going to be insane.

—Jannier

“I Miss You” Poems For Him

13. A Long Distance Love!

Enough to satisfy my craving heart’s plea,
Tomorrow will be the day I love you more,
Than today or yesterday or ever before,
Words and phrases will never do,
What my heart feels so deeply for you,
Deeper and deeper my feelings go,
My head is spinning too and fro,
I want you here, forever and more,
For our hearts to join and together explore,
Our hearts beat and beat as one,
Feel what I’m feeling, it’s only begun,
Yet, slowly my desire turns to rage,
My heart feels as though it’s within a cage,
You are so close yet so far,
At times like this I wish upon a star,
I wish you were here and not over there,
Yet life is hard as well as unfair,
All I can do is wish and wait,
Until we meet again as that is our fate,
I love you more than my words can say,
And forever my love will grow each passing day,
Until the day I gently hold your face,
Kiss your lips within a candle lit place,
Hold you close and feel you near,
Kiss your cheek and whisper among your ear,
Feel your soft skin beneath my hand,
Feel your energy inside expand,
I’ll wish for that moment as I always do,
And I’ve wished upon a star, so my wish will come true.

—JessicaAndress

14. Come Back And Give Me A Kiss

My Facebook status right now is
I am sad and lonely
My latest WhatsApp status says
Come back to me quickly
My latest tweets shout out
我iss you very much
My Google Plus update is
I want your loving touch
You are aware of my feelings
And I know you are reading all this
So why don’t you do the right thing
Baby, come back and give me a kiss

15. Be With You

Each day I spent without you makes me miss you so very much
Each night I dream about you
I long to feel your touch
If I could just see your face or kiss your gentle lips
If I could only hear your voice
All these little things I miss
So I just want you to know
There’s nothing I wouldn’t do
If I could just once again Be With You
MarcellaMyer

16. When I’m Missing You

When I’m missing you,
I walk to the river’s edge.
Frozen or free-flowing,
it soothes me;
sends me back to our small adventures.
Stargazing. Fireflies.
All-day swimming.
Long goodbyes.
No matter how cold it is outside,
our summers warm me,
and we’re together again.

—Heather Grace Stewart

17. Come Back To Me

In the mornings when I wake up
I turn to the empty pillow next to me
And sometimes I forget you’re not there
The realization is almost too much to bear
My arms long for yours
My lips the same
I can’t wait until you’re back
So that I can lay my head on your chest
And my mornings will be complete
Next to you I can rest
I am missing you like mad
Come back to me soon.

—Anonymous

18. Don’t Be Gone Too Long

I never thought I would feel such pain
I need you here, to see you again
I never thought I would miss your touch
I realized I need it so much
I never thought I would feel so lost
And need your love at any cost
I never thought I would wake up alone
I need you back, don’t be gone too long
Come Back Soon

—Anonymous

19. Waiting For You To Return

The sugar doesn’t seem a sweet
when you’re not here to kiss me.
The stars above don’t shine as bright
when you’re not lying with me.
My hands are cold without your touch
and my body seems to shiver.
I wait for you to return to me
so we can get warm together.
Anonymous

20. Not Just My Boyfriend

While absence may make
The heart grow fonder
I’d do anything and everything to
Bring you back from yonder
You’re more than just my boyfriend
You’re my other half
我的世界是灰色的
Without the color of your laugh

“I Miss You” Poems For Her

21. You Are Missing From Me

Missing long-distance partner

Image: IStock

I wish I could be where you are,
To feel the warmth of your embrace,
”Tu me manques my darling!” Is all that I can say.

The snow it drifts upon me,
With shards of memories,
I long to kiss your lips,
For they stir sweet melodies.

A hug, cuddle or touch would ease my aching soul,
I long to be with you,
For you are what makes me whole…

—Adam Riley

22. I Cannot Tell

How much I miss you
I simply cannot tell
It’s like, on me
You’ve cast a magic spell
Words are not enough
To convey my feelings
When you’re not around
Everything is irritating
I don’t know how much longer
I can keep going this way
Your hugs are all that my heart
Needs to go YAY
xoxo

—Anonymous

23. You And I

At the thought of you
my eyes love teary drops
It makes me smile but at times weary
How can one love a woman so much
When a memory of you plays in my mind
I know everything about expression
I know pain with a glass in hands
I sleep with the radio on because I miss you
I hear your swift sweet sighs of breath
You make anew what grief destroyed
You’re the reviver of old departed memories
I’m a man and I got to let a woman go
You’re moving forward in another man’s arms
I hope he sees nature doesn’t make one like you
Can’t you see it’s got to be the Lord
Who makes you so beautiful?
And everything that He done touched
Like your Mind, Body and soul
Is enough to be my world
It’s not a fluke
that I’m still here waiting for you
That if you drop a glass
A glass in thousand pieces
Can mirror my heart

—Elijah

24. Up All Night

What has me up all night, what has me so restless at night.
What has me so distressed at night.
So messed up I’m not sure what to do kinda night.
Thoughts of a future,
thoughts of a family,
thoughts of running just to hold you all night.
Yeah my mind, my mind runs away to you.
我失去控制,似乎无法找到了to sane.
So this has me up all night.
Up all night.
The very thought of you takes my mind away.
Away to a better place, away to a better way.
Away.
Away.
I can see how this ends.
Every time I see you I realize how much I need you.
How much I need just a sign from you.
Is the thought of this alright for me to feel or wrong to even think of you.

—Jeff Galvez

25. Miserable Lie Without You

As miserable as life seems
When you’re not with me
I can’t help but smile
Thinking about how it’ll be
When we meet again
With long and silent hugs
All my worries will melt away
When you give me those tugs
Oh, what would I give
For that moment to come sooner
You have no idea, how I
Desperately crave to be together
我iss you

—Anonymous

26. Nothing Without You

I don’t know how you’re coping up
With being hundreds of miles away
But I feel like a star in the sky
Fading away, day after day
It’s been too long since
The last time we were together
Without you, life means nothing to me
It feels like everything is over
我iss you

—Anonymous

27. Miss You Baby

Hey girl
我iss you so much
Hey sweetheart
我iss your sizzling touch
Hey baby
我iss looking at your face
Hey angel
我iss your embrace
Hey beautiful
我iss everything about you
When you get back
Lots of kisses will be due

—Anonymous

28. Incomplete Without You

Have you ever tasted
Tea without sugar
Have you ever tried
Bread without butter
Have you ever eaten
Chips without fish
You should try out this stuff
Is what I really wish
So that you come to know
What my life has become
Without you, I am
Incomplete and lonesome
我iss you

Romantic Poems For Long-Distance Relationships

29. You

There’s something in your voice that makes it all alright,
Something in your smile that gets me through the night.
A comfort in your grin that helps my day pass by.
A twinkle in your eyes that lights my darkened sky.
Your posture says “don’t worry” and your laugh, it says “I care”.
That kiss you blow when we say goodbye that says “I’m always there”.
It’s all these things about you I couldn‘t live without.
It’s you that makes me happy, it’s you without a doubt.

30. A Long Distance Love!

A thousand kisses will never be,
Enough to satisfy my craving heart’s plea,
Tomorrow will be the day I love you more,
Than today or yesterday or ever before,
Words and phrases will never do,
What my heart feels so deeply for you,
Deeper and deeper my feelings go,
My head is spinning too and fro,
I want you here, forever and more,
For our hearts to join and together explore,
Our hearts beat and beat as one,
Feel what I’m feeling, it’s only begun,
Yet, slowly my desire turns to rage,
My heart feels as though it’s within a cage,
You are so close yet so far,
At times like this I wish upon a star,
I wish you were here and not over there,
Yet life is hard as well as unfair,
All I can do is wish and wait,
Until we meet again as that is our fate,
I love you more than my words can say,
And forever my love will grow each passing day,
Until the day I gently hold your face,
Kiss your lips within a candle lit place,
Hold you close and feel you near,
Kiss your cheek and whisper among your ear,
Feel your soft skin beneath my hand,
Feel your energy inside expand,
I’ll wish for that moment as I always do,
And I’ve wished upon a star, so my wish will come true.

It’s getting really difficult all the while,

33. Fire of Our Love

The connection between us
Is perfectly forged
and is so strong
I feel it always
No matter how far apart we are.
The deep spark of our love
Is brighter than ever
And every thought I have about you
Seems to make the distance
Appear smaller
And smaller.
Until –
One day soon
That distance will disappear
Completely
And we’ll be free to let our love’s bright spark
Burn into a wildfire.

—Anonymous

34. Each And Every Moment

For each and every moment
Every second I exist
I live and breathe for you
Your love I can’t resist
To live and love this lifetime
You are in my daily prayer
For times when you’re not with me
When I close my eyes you’re there
For every dance together
For every star above
The light that burns within us
The passion of your love
With dreams so never ending
For every sparkling sea
For each sunrise and sunset
I feel your love in me
For every breath worth taking
More than the air I breathe
The love that lives within me
Forever I believe
For each and every moment
And every heartfelt kiss
I am always thinking of you
And of the things I’d miss
For every hug that we have shared
And every soft embrace
For every smile turned to laughter
No other could take your place
For each and every moment
This heart so warm and pure
Gently caresses each heartbeat
And I could not ask for more

—William Lindenmuth

35. Thinking About You

When I ate today at noon
All I could think about was you
Wishing you were here to do what you do
Wishing I could feed you with my spoon
Hoping someday I’ll see your smile again

I don’t know if I can take all this pain
Knowing that I am here and you are there
Thinking about the times we had and will not have

你是最棒的,was and will be
There is nothing to explain you, but lovely
Even when I was sad you made me happy

I just don’t know what to do
I just hope one day, I get to see you

—GaryR. Hess

Short Long-Distance Love Poems

36. I wish for all those beautiful moments

We shared to remain in my heart and my head forever,
A moment of truth and laughter,
A moment of giving and sharing,
A moment of compassion and love, and
A moment of cuddling and romance.
I will always wait for you, my love.

37. Just as the sun brightens up the earth at day,

the moon lightens up the planet at night,
and how essential oxygen is to human existence,
my love is willing to stand any form of challenge that distance may bring.
Love you so much my world.

38. Fear is all that grips me when the thought of you leaving me crosses my mind.

You are not just my friend,
but someone whom I have chosen to spend the rest of life with,
Please do not stay too long because I am missing you badly.

39. The clouds have rolled up

In the horizon of my life
The day you went away
You left me nothing but strife
A thunderstorm is about to hit
I can feel it, I’m so blue
The only way to escape this calamity
Is to cuddle up with you

40. Not a day, not a week

Definitely not a fortnight
Even one second is too long
For you to be away from my sight
I just don’t know
What to say or what to do
Baby, come back to me
I am going crazy missing you
