Delilah’s Ladder

100 Faces in 100 Stories — No92

--

Oh, it was easy to find the bridge between heaven and earth. But did anyone ever think to look for the one between earth and hell?

I tried. I looked in catacombs ridden with lost souls, I traced mountain paths once traversed by heroes, and I stalked graveyards teeming with ghosts.

But finding the trail to hell was simple enough.

All it involved was getting your heart broken by a woman.

Her name was Delilah. She had a honey-sweet voice, and she sang sultry songs in dim nightclubs.

I should have known she could be the death of me.
