If you had a pill.

That would take it all away.

I’d rip your hand off.

I like to play with words to escape reality. Or at least to try and make sense of it.

    Oh man, wasn’t expecting the savagery of that last line, hits hard. Can’t tell if you’re saying you’d tear the hand to stop the reader from taking the pill, or to take it for yourself. Either way, what a gut punch.
