I think that's common to a lot of us. On my good days, I chalk it up to being imaginative, which helps as an artist and a writer. On my bad days, I just assume I'm insane.
But it's been me since childhood. Some books I could never read more than once, some movies that still make me cry even after seeing them multiple times, and some characters from someone else's universe that manage to come live in *my* head. Namely Buffy, Angel, and occasionally Connor. (I can write Spike, but he doesn't make me cry.)

In any case. You're hardly alone.
