The poem “I Am Offering this Poem” by Jimmy Santiago Baca reflects the poet’s love for his beloved for whom he has dedicated the poem.

The line “no longer cares if you live or die” best contrasts with the poet’s feeling of love. He wants his love to be a shelter and covering upon her beloved even if anyone isn’t concerned about her. He wrote the poem and dedicated to his beloved so that she would never feel an emptiness in her life even in his absence.
