This short story was written beautifully! From the moment I started to read it, I was wanting to know what would happen next.

Tragic yet beautiful!
Oh the poor nightingale and the wretched, ungrateful humans..

I don't get along with short stories very well but this one was fantastic, I'll give it 5 stars.

Oh, this one punches you in the gut, doesn’t it? 

A short story but I think it will stick with me longer than books with 10x the page count.

I listened to this while making my breakfast this morning and I 100% got tears in my bacon, guys. It's such a beautiful sad story.
