I’ve no need of a Valentine reminder when in you I already have my saintly Goddess!A Poem by COLLYMORELove is in the air!By Stanley Collymore
Do I love you? Of course I do as I always said I would, unquestionably wanted to and solemnly promised to you then, and as I still do, that I shall forever carry on loving you. And do you want to know why? Because I really and truthfully do love you! And nothing that I know of or could ever conceivably foresee will ever alter that fact, which for me is a constant and undeviating reminder of and also a committed and my enduring reality of how precisely it is that I actually feel for you. So bearing all that seriously and objectively in mind I don’t see why I should permit myself in any shape or sense to either logically or as a perceived matter of fact willingly or unthinkingly on this annually paraded and vastly commercially conceived postulation with its conspicuously attendant commercially devised bandwagon, whose financially compensated beneficiaries cynically and covetously prey on these vulnerable and credulous morons.
Themselves irrationally more preoccupied with the ephemeral and populous notion of being in love rather than uprightly, studiously and eruditely concentrating on and cultivating, as a matter of choice, their own productive conception of love which, accordingly, could then be generously expanded into formulating a distinct and tailored form of love that transparently meets and fulfils their own identifiable, individual needs; not the desires of the collective masses as is so unashamedly disseminated. And why it is my dearest Darling that there’s an enormous world of difference between what I unalterably feel for you and will forever carry on doing so, and what these plethora of toadying and credulous fools, manipulatively, premeditatedly ensnared by the counterfeit trappings of every foisted St. Valentine’s Day thrust on them, and the financially motivated superfluities churned out ad nauseum by the carpetbaggers of that trade that overly support these monetary intrigues, allowing themselves to be influenced it’s right and hence to routinely do. Quite improper I would say for the likes of you and me and why emphatically it’s a senseless game I categorically wouldn’t even contemplate being associated with in any possible way far less so in an entire month of Sundays opt to play! For love I indomitably feel should judiciously never be a profit making activity; and won’t ever be so for those who actually like me rightly believe in taking it seriously!

Author’s Remarks: As you celebrate either of your own free volition or at the dictates of those with a marked and graspingly manipulative agenda just remember that true love is and has never been a “commodity” that can be bought and sold but rather is a combination of personal and other meaningful factors that of their own accord as well as having purposely been encouraged by those concerned developed between two individuals that truly and lovingly cared for each other and to whom all else within that amorous and loyal equation is significantly secondary and even tertiary!
So bearing that in mind do enjoy your St. Valentine’s Day, which from my perspective should be personally celebrated everyday, and strange as it might seem often is by those who genuinely care for each other; and not simply consigned to just one day in the year that’s publicly designated by those whose only purpose is to make money out of it and your supposed affections for some other person.
