Do you know that feeling that creeps from behind your back...
Silently lurking behind the corner of midnight?
Yes, that feeling is melancholia.
Sweet, bitter, sad and yet so beautiful.
As the raindrops run down the window, your mind wanders around the past.
Why did that happen back then?
What would have happened if it turned out different?
And while you're at it... what is your first high-school love doing right now?
Where are your old friends, you haven't seen for years?
It's as if the brain is on autopilot.
Taking good and bad memories, the raindrops and the darkness of the night
blending them together like a bittersweet smoothie of your life.
As the hours go by you enjoy that smoothie that fills your heart with emotions.
And just when you lost yourself completely in your memories
The rain suddenly stops and is scared away by the dawn
And then you thought about life...
This little piece is written as an ode to melancholia. To everyone that loves to think back as much as I do. It can hurt, but it can also heal. So be brave and take the leap into your own world of your own memories.
We move on best if we look back before...
Do you often dream the day away?
