Array ( [sid] => 170946 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => My Own [time] => 2012-02-22 14:51:50 [hometext] => A Wuthering Heights poem about Cathy's thoughts toward Heathcliff in 3 different phases of her life. The 1st is before she met Edgar, the second is after she met Edgar, & the 3rd is after Heathcliff returned & she married Edgar. [bodytext] => -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My own savage to hold, you're more of me than I

My own existence would be gone were you to subside

In that moment, I would lose myself, lose the reason to live

You could not do such a thing to me, for it is not your soul to give

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My own gypsy to mold, you'll never command me so

For it is only I who will decide how my life unfolds

This gentleman from across the Moor could never take your place

His tender touch can never make me forget your own embrace

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My own Heathcliff, I'm cold, and there's not much time left now

Hold me near, while I'm still here; come, do not be too proud

I've made mistakes, my heart did break, and I wish all could be undone

But I love you now, like I loved you then; you'll always be the one... you've always been the one... you are my only one
