Everyday is special!
Indeed! Why should lovers need a "special" day to be romantic when hopefully they already are.
It's not rocket science to court each other, and yes even after your married you still court each other!
You see my darlings, it's not the special days of the year that you'll look back on in your life, it will be all those sweet tiny little moments that will bring a tear of joy.
The times you did the dishes together and splashed each other, when he grabbed your ass and said his hand slipped. When you spelled out loving messages with the magnetic alphabet letters on the frig.
"P.S. I Love You"
The loving way he reads to you when you soak in the tub.
The sweet way you remember to fix his collar before he leaves as you kiss goodbye.
You see my darlings it's never about the big moments in our lives together even though they are nice, it's always been about the small moments and how fleetingly precious you find they are when you look back.
Why not celebrate? Let me count the ways.
We've been married for a very long time.
I don't need prompting to buy roses and wine.
He claims to forget, but I think it's design.
"I don't really like you. I'll have to decline."
Why should I do anything? We've just met online.
The day has origins that are neither cute or divine.
Capitalist pigs exploit it for the bottom line.
"I'll make thee mine, if I can be thine."
"Cut the crap, you sap, I'd rather take strychnine."
She never likes what I get, and I can't stand the whine.
Think for yourself, screw peer pressure, and get a spine.
Whatever you do, please, please, don't be my Valentine.
