I would give my life to save yours
Sacrifice my happiness for yours
Take upon myself any pestilence to spare you
Carry you barefoot over hot coals to safety
Forego food to ensure you were fed
You are the meaning of life
The center of the universe
You are love

Poignant. The kind of love a superhero would write. ⚡💙⚡
Beautiful poem, - you can't say much more for a declaration of love than that. Well Done.
