Short Teenage Love Poems

Are you looking for short teenage love poems? While poetry can be exciting and interesting to a teen, sometimes long poems can be boring. Even if a poem is well-written and emotional, it can often be hard to read a long poem just because of its length. This is one of the main reasons that there are so many short teenage love poems out there!

How Short is Too Short?

A common critique about shorter types of poems are that there cannot be enough emotion in a poem if it is short. Others even go as far as to say that an emotion cannot be strong to the author if they are too lazy to write more than a short poem. However, for many this is not the case. An optimistic way to look at it is that perhaps a feeling is so powerful that the author can only write a little bit about it. No matter how you may feel about short love poems, just remember that it's the words and not the length that matters. Many are just as sweet as longer ones.

Haiku For My Love
I love you so much
there may not be words to say
Oh, I still love you

Lucky
I often feel lucky
Every day that we are together
Every day that I see your face
Every day that you are alive
Every day

What I Should Say
I should probably tell you I love you
and not worry who thinks it is 'puppy dog love.'
But I can't help but worry that you may think like them.
And so I keep my mouth shut.
And will never tell you my thoughts.

My Heart Belongs
My heart belongs to you
Our lives belong to you and I
We belong together

18
I hope that when we turn 18
We still feel as much love as today
So that we can get married together
and never feel a different way.

You
I smile to know you
I smile because of you
I breathe because of you
I am because of you
It is just you

Your Laughter
Homeroom will never be the same
without your presence laughing.
How am I expected to see the sun
when you are not bringing it to me?

My Lobster
Though we are so young
I know that this is so real
You are my lobster

Weather Unwise
When it is cold, I think of you
When it is hot, I think of you
My parents say I think of you too much.
I only think of you when the day ends in 'Y.'

Summer Joy
I have never known joy like this
The summer is ours
To waste, the hold
I will hold you tightly
but will never waste our time.

Only Friends
I miss you when you're gone
You are my favorite
I am but only your friend
