Melancholy isn't despair, anger or depression. It is a wise accommodation with griefs, large and small, of existence. It is a commitment to face difficulties without rage or violence.
The melancholy person knows how tragic life can be. But greets sadness with stoicism, courage and quiet strength. Melancholy is not an illness to be cured. It is the wisest way to greet the folly of the world. It is an achievement.

Some would say It’s feeling sad for no apparent reason. I say It’s what muggles feel when dementors are around.

Melancholy is a heavy feeling of sadness and nostalgia mixed up together. Most of the time, melancholy comes without a exact reason, it can last minutes, hours, and even days or weeks.

Similar to feeling bittersweet. It's like and old memory. Things were nice, but now what made it special has dissipated.
I saw a playground that I used to play in with some old friends. But it's run down, and my friends have all moved on and haven't talked to each other in years. It makes me feel melancholy.
