Love

If love means die for her,
I am dead in you, your laps are my graveyard
If love means follow her, 
I have followed you to love ocean, drunk with kisses of yours
If love means forget others,
I forgot my family to forget myself in you completely
If love means arise for  her,
I arose  in your heart as dews of another hope
If love means submit, 
 I submitted for you before the war started. 
If love means conquer,
You conquered my heart  years back where nobody see us
But, you saw am in love
if love means reveals, you are  revealed both in dreams , prophesy and words.
I am your love, hold me.
- Omojevwe Emmanuel .

Hello Omojewve. Good Morning. You have certainly expressed love and devotion. The repetition proved that point with emphasis. Your ending line allows the reader to pause. Well done throughout.
