The Tenth Circle

"Dante stood at the gates of hell and read the warning written above them: "Lasciate ogne speranza, voi ch'intrate"—"All hope abandon, ye who enter here." And then he continued through them anyway. He wrote about sinners in the nine circles of hell, and I realized there should be another one. One reserved for those of us who have lied to ourselves by pretending we aren't hurting the ones we love. The tenth circle."
