Ten Steps

Three years ago, I wrote a letter.
Three years ago, I made a promise.

I promised myself that I would get better, that I wouldn't go back to that place. A place where I was trapped in my own mind, surrounded by little more than my own demons and bad memories.

I broke that promise.

So here I stand, wondering what went wrong, praying that someone will save me, as I stare down at the ten steps that lie between me and my death.
