The Sad, The Dark, and The Beautiful

Enjoy your gorgeous misery. To pair it with, we suggest a plate of melancholy songs, freshly harvested from fields of artistic sorrow, brought to the table still glistening with the morning dew of brittle hope. The chef asked me to inform you that you need not be sad to savor such delicate beauty. Good music will replenish your serotonin reserves regardless.


Karanlık artık hurda bir eşyadır. Ve en güzel yerinde durur evin.
