I would like to share with you a little romantic love poem I discovered some years ago.
I sort of like it, because in my opinion it differs a little from other poems. You literally feel the electrifying intensity. It moves you to depths you never knew about.
Of course, beauty is always in the eye of the beholder they say, but this poem conveys a certain truth we all know, or hope, exists – and we all long to have it in our lives.
It gives us a short glance how life should be – sweet and passionate.
To me, personally, the following poem is the most romantic love poem of all.
Wait a minute, you might think.
Why does Eddie Corbano show me such a poem, beautiful or not? Hey, this wouldn't be a LovesAGame article if there was nothing to learn from it, right?
Now, after reading the poem below, I want you to ask yourself the following:
“Have I ever felt in such a way? Do I have a fundamental understanding of what this poem is about? What is my concept of feeling love?”
Furthermore, if you are in a fulfilling relationship, I want you to let this little piece of art elevate you to a new level of passion and sensibility. Read this poem together with your partner, and together find the truth in it for you.
If your partner is currently not by your side, send them this poem by letter or email, along with some personal words from you.
If you are suffering from a recent divorce or break-up, let it remind you that it still exists. It's still out there waiting for you to find it.
It's certainly not dead.
So, obviously, I'm sharing this with you for three reasons:
- to delight you with some insightful piece of art
- to elevate you and your partner to a new level of understanding of true love
- to remind you that the love in which you believed once, still exists
So, no more talking, here it is the most romantic of all short, love poems, enjoy:
From the beginning of my life
I have been looking for your face
but today I have seen it
Today I have seen
the charm, the beauty,
the unfathomable grace
of the face
that I was looking for
Today I have found you
and those who laughed
and scorned me yesterday
are sorry that they were not looking
as I did
I am bewildered by the magnificence
of your beauty
and wish to see you
with a hundred eyes
My heart has burned with passion
and has searched forever
for this wondrous beauty
that I now behold
I am ashamed
to call this love human
and afraid of God
to call it divine
Your fragrant breath
like the morning breeze
has come to the stillness of the garden
You have breathed new life into me
I have become your sunshine
and also your shadow
My soul is screaming in ecstasy
Every fiber of my being
is in love with you
Your effulgence
has lit a fire in my heart
for me
the earth and sky
My arrow of love
has arrived at the target
I am in the house of mercy
and my heart
is a place of prayer
Beautiful, isn't it?
This is Rumis “Looking for your face”. There is also a remarkable recitation along with some awesome music (look out for track 14): A Gift Of Love. Check it out.
Your friend,

What is love?
Love is when you miss someone so much it hurts to think.
Love is when you can’t act human without them.
Love is when you stop wanting things and only want them.
Good one, thank you!
Lost love
You are happy and I am too
That’s all I knew
But when the time flew
It’s break my heart in two
I guess I didn’t know the real you
Because your love lost
As time goes through
Love
We all experience love differently some people think its a mericle and some say its karma but one time i experienced love as a amazing feeling i felt like i was in cloud nine but then he left me i was scattered into a milion pieces and filled with hate my heart filed with darkness
And pain but forever in shame
I like your poem Lotuence
this poem goes to all my exs and future love of my life.
it is sad, about my past
I wasn’t ready for loves
all I started I expected it to last
and have a wedding with bright white doves
flying above like summer snow
but less did I know
it take more than a sword
to go to battle of love
they say learning never ends
well am still learning how to take my steps without falling
commitment makes me shiver
I fear breaking a heart and being heat broken
unfortunately I have faced both
I have scars to be mended and to mend
only by true love
coz any more marks on my heart will tear it apart
am done with the old games
I want to face my fate
commitment
yes I said it and I mean it with all my heart……
this is a long poem I wrote on my 16th birthday last year 2014
Good One ….
Rumi, my most beloved poet! Thank you for posting this poem Andrea. Years ago when i first read his poems, my mind has blown away, my heart broken, by the wondrous feelings, then when all came together again, I was at once somebody else. Indeed, sublime arts, poetry, beauty, can change and heal minds and souls, and your post is appropriate.
Thx a bunch! Makes me want to keep trying at love…
thank you all for embracing the gift of all………true love is really sweet.
thanks so much april for posting such a beautiful poem. it really touched my heart and explains how much i love my boyfriend.
In the end my love for you shall remain a mistery I could never find the words to express how I really feel about you its all to confusing to sum up in words if only you could see yourself through my eyes and love you through my heart it will only take you a few seconds to realize that you mean the world to me……
How this poem is perfect. It describes how I feel for my girl, thank you so much for putting it out there for everyone!
Excellent.. Thank you so much
I don’t see how everyone has been taken by this poem? I find it quite eccentric and it goes to show that men have always been blinded by beauty. Or wait, he isn’t even writing about the real beauty of a woman but an actual physical looks. He’s ought to write about her face but he ends up writing about himself and the way he is touched by something so superficial. All in all it is not sincere and I am not impressed.
Oh, he was indeed blinded by beauty, considering as being divine. Rumi is one of the best poets of humanity, possessed by a genius of the heart, he was a Sufi, a mystic, and enlightened being.Is fascinating to see how modern he is, so actual, so fresh…thinking that he was alive in 13 century!
To him, the beauty of a face is the beauty of soul, of God, and what in fact says here, is that only love and beauty can make someone burn, die, and revive, change. “Only from the heart we can reach the sky” He is a master of poetry, and his poems has awaken millions of hearts. But poems can touch only the hearts ready to be awaken, sensitive hearts on the brink of burning in the fire of passion, which is the fire of the soul ( not of the sex with all due respect)
this the poem that i wrote a year ago when im fell in love with the man i used to called mine
i hope you would like this poem
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 kindness
Your understanding touch
Your eyes that somehow
Seem to say I Love you so much
I Love you
For your faith in me
Your sweet and patient way
For the many thoughtful things
You do so often without praise
I Love you
For all these things and million others too
But most of all for what you are
Superbly Written…..so rhyming…the real pleasure is in reading a rhyming poem….you nailed it….
