Leprous
Root
Firm rock surface
Shutting me out
One true purpose
Circles about

Thermal anguish
Derailing me
Forcing my anchor
Where it should be

My root
Infiltrating
Deeper

My fruit
Surpassing
My keeper

Left to the seasons
Random distress
Unstable comfort
I grow to impress

Climbing to greatness
I learn my way
How to survive
No task made easy
Setting me free
How to survive
Slowing me down
