    “Tired,
    she looked up the path
    her lover would take
    as far as her eyes could see.
    On the roads,
    traffic ceased
    at the end of day
    as night slid over the sky.
    The traveller’s pained wife
    took a single step towards home,
    said, “Could he not have come at this instant?”
    and quickly craning her neck around,
    looked up the path again.”
    —Amaru (c. seventh century A.D.)

    “But each day brings its petty dust
    Our soon-choked souls to fill,
    And we forget because we must,
    And not because we will.”
    —Matthew Arnold (1822–1888)
