A Tiny Grain of Sand

I envy the clouds I envy the trees I envy the worlds true creations I’ll never surpass
 
A mere speck of dirt a grain of sand my value means little after all I see
Embarrassed by my insignificance lost with my idea of my identity
I am braver now my fears are gone I have gone so far I can stand alone I face my destiny

What I envy the most is the chance to achieve everything I was meant to be
