You’ve had a long stressful day. You’ve arrived home and put on your pajamas right away. You’re just fed up with everything so you lay down and quite automatically turn on the music in your bedroom.

“Just want this day to finish so I can start fresh tomorrow”, you think to yourself.

In the background, an endless stream of songs between nostalgia, melancholy, and pure calmness, fills the cold space of your apartment.

You faintly smile to yourself.

“That’s what I was looking for”, you suddenly realize.

You stare into the ceiling, lost in your thoughts, trying to forget the outer world even exists.

This is the time you need for yourself.

Your mind wandering freely.

All this world for you to explore.

Alone, until you fade into darkness. You’re finally at peace and dreams soothe you.

Everything is alright.

Looking for melancholy
