Ratings and reviews

I think Lord Byron's life was a sad story...but he also found meaning and coped the way he knew how. I love his poetry and 200 years later people are still reading it. I can feel the passion and the different emotions when I read his poems. He deserved the publicity, and I just wish he had an easier life.
