Melancholy

To be 'melancholy' is a brand of sadness that is over thought, prolonged and can be caused by any reason regardless of its the magnitude. It's a very personal, heavy weighing sadness. It has similar characteristics with depression however, melancholy is an insidious sadness. It's more than simple desolation or dejection, melancholy feeds on pensive self reflection in such a low state, reflecting lower and lower on itself until you can't see anything other than sadness.

Example 1)
Person 1: I just went for a 5 hour walk, didn't bring any food or water and just listened to music.
...
Person 1: It's 3 AM... maybe I'll just eat tomorrow.
...
Person 1: ... fuck I need to stop thinking about this so much, it's making me Melancholy.

Bitter Sweet Memories

When I go to the bar alone which me and my old friend used to go to together, these bitter sweet memories are making me feel melancholy.

Melancholy

Not a synonym for the word "Macabre"! They're vaguely synonymous! VAGUELY SYNONYMOUS!!!

Hym "Ok. Listen here you little shits. 'melancholy' relates to 'gloom' and 'despair'. 'macabre' relates to 'death' and/or 'illness'. So a crying maiden in a field of flowers on a brightly lit day would be 'melancholy' but it would not be 'macabre'. A happy skeleton holding some maracas (on the other hand) would not be 'melancholy' and it would be 'macabre'. Get it? NOT THE SAME!"

Iam "Calm down a little bit, would you?"

Hym "THEY'RE NOT THE SAME! STOP SAYING THEYRE THE SAME!!!"
