Three Grains Of Rice

There are four of us but only three grains of rice left

You each take one and I will think of something else

I know one grain of rice will not make you strong

But together for a little while, you three can carry on

Do not think of it as a big sacrifice

When I give you three each a grain of rice

If you could only see and only knew

All of the things that I was going through

You still would not understand

It is like trying to hold a fist full of sand

It eventually all pours out of you

Until there is nothing left to do

There are four of us but only three grains of rice left

Please take them because I just want to get away from myself
