I'll Not Weep

I'll Not Weep That Thou Are Going To Leave Me

(Emily Bronte)

So if a tear when thou art dying

Shall haply fall from me

It is but my soul is sighing

To go and rest with thee

My favourite book is Wuthering Heights.  I read it for the first time in grade 8 as a school assignment and I absolutely loved it.  It's not that it was just well written but I really felt for the main character Heathclif.  I guess I've always been a romantic.  Some people read the book and thought Heathcliff was an evil man, but I only saw someone tortured by love.  Love can harden people, turn them into things they never would have dreamt of.  Love can devour us as was the case with Catherine and her husband.  But love can also complete us, fill us with a sense of belong that was once missing.  I gained a lot of insight into love from reading Wuthering Heights.  If you've never read it I suggest you do.
