Venus and Adonis and The Rape of Lucrece.
It depends who selected the poems and why. If you selected some suitable Shakespeare poems for your book "Shakespeare's Love Poems" of course they would be about love. But even if you look at all of Shakespeare's poetry, a lot of it is about love. That's for a lot of reasons. Venus and Adonis is about love because pornography sells. Many of the sonnets are about love because that is a traditional sonnet theme. (Of course a lot of them are about such things as continuing the species, the ravages of time and so on)

If Shakespeare had a lover, we don't know who it was. Likewise, he didn't dedicate his plays to anyone. If someone said to him, "Please if you love me Willie darling write me a play about Titus Andronicus" we have no record of it.
Ah, well, friend, Shakespeare's love for poetry bloomed like a happy little flower in the garden of his soul. He found joy and inspiration in the beauty of language and the power of words to paint vivid pictures in the minds of others. Just like when a bird sings its sweet song at dawn, Shakespeare's passion for poetry was simply a natural part of who he was.
Shakespeare wrote poetry and plays.

They were both creative artists. In fact, both wrote love-poetry to men (whether the nature of the love was sexual or not is a matter for debate). They share a vital statistic: Michaelangelo died in the year Shakespeare was born.
