Be encouraged by our long distance relationship poems. Many relationships flourish even when we are apart from the one we love
Being away from the one you love is difficult. There is an expression, "absence makes your love grow fonder". These words are so true as we
truly miss and appreciate the other person when we are separated.
As Hans Nouwens once said, "In true love, the smallest distance is too great, and the greatest distance can be bridged." When we are in a long distance
relationship we will find ways to make it work or to paraphrase we will make bridges.
If you are truly are in love then the distance of miles will not stop a relationship from growing. As they say, "Distance is just a test of how far love can travel."
Or as Tom McNeal said, "Distance means so little when someone means so much."
I wish we were so much closer,
So hard to share my love through the mail.
But I never will stop, sending my love,
To the one whom I will always prevail.
You're the one who's really for me,
I can't believe this is true but it is.
I'm excited to say, that our love on this day
Is full of so much excitement and fizz.
Even though we are miles apart
I think of you and keep you in my heart.
The times we have had
Always make me feel glad.
I will be happy when you are back in my arms
I miss your smile and your charms
A day away from you
Always makes me feel blue
And now you are away for awhile
I find it hard just to smile.
But may my poems remind you
Of my love which is so true.
What Shall I Wish Thee, Dear? Poet: Unknown
What shall I wish thee, Dear?
Many a joyous year,
Pleasure bestowing;
Life's sunshine warm and bright
Steeping thy path in light
Golden and glowing.
What shall I wish thee, Dear?
Many a happy year
Leading thee onward;
Bright blossoms at thy feet,
Hope breathing whispers sweet,
As thou goest onward.
What shall I wish thee, Dear?
Many a peaceful year —
From God the Giver —
Then a glad welcome home.
Where fadeless flowers shall bloom
Round thee forever.
