"The wind is rushing after us, and the clouds are flying

"The wind is rushing after us,
and the clouds are flying after us,
and the moon is plunging after us,
and the whole wild night is in pursuit of us;
but, so far we are pursued by nothing else."

-Charles Dickens, A Tale of Two Cities

Do you ever get that strange feeling After finishing a really good book? Right after you finish there is an empty feeling inside your heart. You want the story to become reality. You feel a weird sadness as everything relates back to that book. It makes you want to create changes in your life and become what you always wanted. The fact that the story is over bogs your mind, But you don't think you can ever get through reading it again. The real world comes back, and you wish you could just trade places with the main character. You got to know the characters so well that it is almost like losing a close friend. You feel like crying because of your own life, but also rejoicing because you found a new one in that book. The end of a good book is like closing the door to a world that you will never be able to visit again. It's probably one of the best and worst feelings in the world.
