Words expressing love come in numerous combinations, use evocative imagery and convey emotion that is fluid rather than fixed. Each word works hard.
Love Word Combinations
Here are some love phrases that are a noun with descriptive adjective. In parentheses are words that can be substituted for the noun (love) and its modifier (abiding). Examples: Everlasting joy, abounding passion, awesome elegance, angelic smile, amorous embrace.
- Abiding (everlasting, abounding, eternal, compassionate, ) love (devotion, happiness, joy, passion, pleasures, delight)
- Exciting (angelic, awesome, expressive, animated, artistic, admirable) smile (grace, mannerisms, outlook, elegance, attitude)
- Playful (amorous, affectionate, adorable) responses (repartee, behavior, embrace)
Evocative Words
Evocative words conjure up a vision or tap into a feeling. They don't have to relate to sex. Here are ones that don't, or are borderline:
- That bashful modesty and heart-warming tenderness project a majestic dignity.
- Your captivating speech, gifted intelligence and keen insight add to your exhilarating charm.
- Lovable virtues and unselfish loyalty give you a reassuring serenity and penetrating warmth.
- What a wonderful surprise: healthy vitality, a sparkling personality and gleeful spirit all in one package!
Raging Hormones
People who have just fallen in love often have raging hormones and want to express that on paper. There are two important considerations here. First, do not be vulgar. For many people vulgarity and true love do not go hand in hand. Second, remember that a woman in a sensuous dress can often be more suggestive than one who is nude. More is left to the imagination! Try sentences like these:
- We need to talk before this emotional warmth and these erotic embraces express themselves in raging passion.
- I am way past your bewitching smile, tempting lips and alluring physique. I am sensing come-on eyes, moist, voluptuous lips, a hungry mouth and a responsive body. Is it oops time?
- Warn me when it's time for playful fingers, exciting breasts and erotic responses.
Ending the Love Letter
The end of the love letter is not the time to slow down. It is, in fact, time to rev things up. Here are some ways to sign off:
- Your captured heart
- Lost in love
- Awake but dreaming of you
- Yearning for the next kiss
- Alive again
- Completely undone
- You are so precious to me
- Over the moon for you
