Got chills reading this. Terrifying and heart-breaking that for some, this is the price (& worse) they pay for speaking the truth!

It took me five minutes to read this, though it's vivid images will probably live with me for a lifetime.

“I open my eyes to see it on the floor like ink and I watch as I end before I am empty.”

Well written very short short-story, somewhat gruesome. The title is not a metaphor.
