Take them away...take it all away.
I'll even give it all to you for free.
Take all that bounds me to the ground.
Everything is for sale,take it.

Take my voice away first.
Steal it so I can utter no words of love.
Use it for propagandas that doesn't exist.
Take from my mouth all the lies.

Take away my hands second.
Rip them away so I can write no Love.
Take them away so I don't write about hopes, dreams.
Give my writings to the world of lies.

Take my feet away thrid.
So I can no longer walk to Love.
Stop me from walking down this snowy path.
Don't let me walk to the lies.

Take my eyes away fourth.
I don't want to see who I love.
Show my eyes to the world so they can see.
Steal them so I can't see the lies.

Take my body fifth.
Slip it away so I don't feel the sensation of Love.
Give it to those who want a coat of feeling.
Wash it all way; lies.

Now I am finaly free to fly.
Leave me my heart so i can feel my love.
Leave me my mind so i can remember my Love.
But please take away all the lies.

Welcome to Passions!!

Let me just say how great it is to see you replying before beginning on your own posting adventure. That's a fantastic thing for you to start doing.  
Your piece is interesting and tells of much pain. By wanting to take away all the lies, you would want to take away all the experiences. The lies make the love, just like the pain and the happiness.
Thanks for sharing this piece. I really did enjoy it and I look forward to seeing many more. Enjoy Passions.

Omgosh... ok *BREATHE, Marie*

First of all, WELCOME TO PASSIONS IN POETRY!

Secondly, I wanted to say that I really like that you've been replying to others works before posting your own stuff.  That's noble of you..

Thirdly, this poem is absolutely amazing.  I am left in awe... I LOVED the whole concept of the poem.  The message and the pleas to take away this and that, but not your heart... omgosh... This is going into my library.  I am completely amazed at the peice I just read.  Maybe one of the best I've read.  Wowsers... nicely done, Nick.  I am VERY excited to see what else you have in store for us!
Beautiful work... simply fantastic...

I loved the concept here, and the ending. Very well thought out. Great read! (I think I'm very late [typical leah], but welcome to passions anyhow.  )
