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)
