SACRIFICE
Sole
drop of sparkling water
Afraid of his fate
Hasitant to commit
For which he never dreamed of
Into the burning sand of life
What else he could do but jump
'cause one has to go first
And he was the chosen one
After a hasitating attempt
He took the jump
And there he went
Oh! it was hard to fall
Steaming sand burnt his soul
He cried and screamed of pain
And sacrificed his life for the remain
But he cooled the way for the others
Established the path for his brothers
Soon after him one by one
All followed the path
Changed the burning sand
Into spread of spring for all
