bittersweet ♪

It's Thursday night, you had to work late and you're now waiting for the last train home... it's been a long day. You're tired and It's a little cold but you only have one more day to go and it will be the weekend. As you sit there waiting, in a small dimly lit terminal, you find your mind wondering, thinking about the past; a time that once was but is no longer. Easier times. Feelings of longing and happiness begin to wash over you as you sit there pondering your life. A momentary break from the current stress of each day. Lost in your Bittersweet memories, you hear a soft whistle from not too far away. It's your train in the distance, and it will be arriving any minute now. As it approaches your thoughts and feelings make their way back to the present and you begin to stand. While some days can be tough, you now feel calm and collected. Hopeful for the future. As the doors slide open and you step onto the train, a gentle smile lingers on your face. It's time to go home.

A short piece I wrote a couple years ago. I always liked it (which is rare when it comes to my own music) but I could never figure out where else to take it composition wise. So it got thrown into a scrap folder and I pretty much forgot about it. However, I was recently going through some old ideas and stumbled upon it again. I listened to it and finally decided to accept it for what it is... a very short piece of music. I wish it could be longer but here it is. Hope you enjoy. Thanks for listening.
