About the day—the era's more obscure.

And the far mountains wax a little hoary,
And clap a white cape on their mantles blue;
And the sea dashes round the promontory,
And the loud breaker boils against the rock,
And sober suns must set at five o'clock.”
• Lord Byron, Don Juan (Canto 1)

And the only thing
I learned
Is that I need you desperately - From Where Do Broken Hearts Go”
