The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

By Stanley Collymore



I promise to love you in every conceivable way that

there is and moreover for as long as I humanly can;

never to intentionally lie to you, emotionally

deceive you, cause you personal anguish

by my behaviour towards you –

whether thoughtlessly or otherwise

embarked upon - and to let no action,

come what may, heedlessly essay

to ever split us apart or unduly

sway what I personally and

powerfully feel for you

and treasure most

deeply within

my heart.

But also permit me to candidly say that as much as

I resolutely care about you and me being together

as one; profoundly respect and passionately

love you in every way that it’s possible

for a woman to ever love a man,

and in that regard where you’re

concerned I categorically

do, I none the less do

intrinsically need to retain something for me

that’s exclusively mine, and which I really

can’t or won’t ever let go of, however

persuasive or engagingly so the

seductive overtures and the

complementary Siren

Song might be of

St.Valentine!

Author’s Remarks

This poem consciously written from a female perspective and assuredly as well my longstanding (from puberty onwards into adulthood actually) and committedly held point of view that in the arena of love absolute equality must at all times be an undisguised pre-requisite and salient factor in all amorous relationships between the two genders of our distinctive human race, is none the less dedicated to all those – whether committedly, casually or hopefully so – who at this time of the year are recurrently and ritually turning their concerted attentions and romantic designs to matters of the heart.

By Stanley Collymore



From a personal perspective I don’t know you at all

even though I’ve run into you a number of times,

albeit briefly so and always distinctly in

a formal situation that essentially,

both disappointingly and

rather problematically for me, precludes any

meaningful or social intercourse between

the two of us. Clearly not an ideal state

of affairs for me or one that I would

have wished for I readily admit,

and furthermore a situation

that most uncomfortably

sits quite contrary to what I’ve

expectantly and earnestly wished

it might otherwise have been.

For both physically and

amorously, and completely beyond doubt,

the intensely remarkable and prevailing

emotional stimuli which you liberally

and overpoweringly generate inside

me have, on my part, indubitably

most consciously, and with a

gratifyingly consummate

abandonment, warmly

thrown wide open

the portals of

my heart.



So on this St. Valentine’s Day now positively

emboldened by and additionally fortified

with the historical licence of and

customary practice afforded

to would be lovers in speaking either

openly or anonymously, but nevertheless

freely, about the profound emotions

they’ve previously closeted but

all the same amorously and

for some time carried

inside, as so many not unlike

myself recurrently do; and therefore

fully committed this time to utilizing

what for me are appropriately and

will hopefully also successfully

prove to be a transformative

state of affairs in my life

this St. Valentine; it’s my resolute

intention to boldly, truthfully,

unhesitatingly but with the

utmost humility as well seize

with both hands this wondrous

opportunity to earnestly express

my deepest feelings towards

you as I explicitly let you

know with unqualified

confidence how very

much I do actually

love and totally

adore you!

Author’s Remarks

Actually knowing that you’re in love and having that love fully reciprocated is one of several astonishing things possible in one’s life; itself fortified with the excellent and truly self-satisfying feeling of encountering this remarkable experience and mutually sharing it with that valued individual in your life. However, to unrealistically or worst still rather delusionally persuade one’s self that a tangible or even a consequential love relationship is in the prospect of happening or actually does exist when no such thing is in vogue or remotely possible is altogether a wholly different issue which a competent, professionally qualified and considerably experienced psychiatrist is far more fittingly suited to deal with.



So at this St. Valentine’s time that like all previous ones, and completely depending on your own and, dare I say, decidedly subjective personal perspective is characterized as infamous and consequently highly irrelevant, or else as noteworthy and therefore must be consummately treasured in every possible way, I wish you all the very best and hope that you truthfully manage to work out for yourself which is the more commonsensical or appropriate of these two contradictory alternatives in your case. But either way that you have a wonderfully pleasurable time while doing so.

By Stanley Collymore



The most intriguing and sometimes totally captivating

thing about the unpredictable vagaries of life are the

chance encounters which they present, enabling

one to occasionally, quite out of the blue

as it happens, come across persons

that previously were entirely

unknown entities to the

individual concerned.

Yet, in spite of the unfamiliarity associated

with such encounters, the instantaneously

thrilling, disarming and natural rapport

coupled with the effortlessly mutual

understanding that this unique

situation generates, itself

securely fused with a

consummate and genuine affability quite

clearly discernible on both sides of this

budding relationship, epitomize as

well what I both feel and know

that true and unpretentious

living is really all about.

And interestingly and honestly said

there can be no denying the fact

that these endearing features,

and many more besides,

you obviously have

in abundance

Samantha!

The Author’s Personal Tribute:

In a world where so many intolerable pressures, and of such diversity too, are unwarrantedly and quite invariably damagingly as well exerted on others who unthinkingly assume and even implausibly, in my opinion, literally convince themselves that they must flow with the tide of embarrassing inanity and even outright, rank stupidity is rather mindboggling to say the least; yet this quite preposterous conduct and the glaringly compulsive craving to please others, even those that the individual doesn’t really know at all and simultaneously to be some person other than one’s self happens repeatedly.



So it’s a most refreshing change and in the process an undeniable inspiration, I freely admit, to happily come across someone like you Samantha, who despite your having a complete array of the most endearing qualities that huge numbers of individuals clearly don’t have, and therefore can only dream about, you nevertheless are the personification of self-control and graciousness coupled with a selfless readiness to be both pleasant and helpful at all times. And very aware of this from the onset of our first meeting I’ve decided to write you this poem Samantha.
