They teach you something... they make you weep, sometimes laugh, sometimes elevate... but mostly, they leave you sad... sad when with them you lose a part of you... a part of you that lived a lifetime with them... with their characters, their settings... and if their story was good... you miss it... you miss not being part of that story... though you also realise it is the truth of life... the truth of lifetimes... the ones you have lived... sad comes after happy... probably the sadder because it was happier sometimes... but it cannot be for ever... just like the books... just like lifetimes... they have to end... maybe to start new stories... new beginnings... who knows... better than the one you just read... who knows?
