My body slowly trembles
As sweat begins to fall
I thought myself a giant
At merely two feet tall

I thought it almost certain
an oak tree I would be
Instead I lay here broken
A useless sprouting seed

An anchor never lifted
A sail never drawn
I stood still unassisted
By the earth's feeble yawn

Like a crown without its person
A lock without a key
I dreamt my humble visions
Of all the things id of seen

A constant disappointment
I stumble endlessly
Without the slightest sign of movement
An empty broken seed
