Get a lesson in the light at the end of that tunnel with "The Hanging."  *** The music behind the story comes from Free Music Archive.  The first track comes from the artist Jelsonic. It titled is “Another Brilliant Age” from the album Various Moods II.   The second track is by the artist Axletree.   It is titled “Goodnight Esme (Instrumental Version)” from the album Cormorant EP.  Both tracks are being used under Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Licenses.    Next up we have a poem by Lord Byron; however, I do want to take a moment and let anyone listening that is having dark thoughts in the vein of this story that they should reach out to the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-8255, or, if a phone call isn’t right for you, chat live online with a counselor at suicidepreventionlifeline.org. Again, please reach out and don’t suffer in silence.
