Question

Alive without a heart it still remains,

Rejoicing in the sun as it soaks its veins.

Crushed by the soles of everything around,

Yet towers over others that dwell above ground.

Without, it could destroy all life,

But having the power to support a king’s might.

Alive without a heart it still remains, Trees are alive without a heart

Rejoicing in the sun as it soaks its veins. Tree leaves have veins

Crushed by the soles of everything around, the leaves are crushed underfoot after they fall

Yet towers over others that dwell above ground. trees are normally taller than those that dwell above ground

Without, it could destroy all life, Without trees life as we know it would not be able to exist

But having the power to support a king’s might. Maybe the wood of a tree can build a castle?

So my answer is either tree or leaf

Alive without a heart it still remains, Trees are alive without a heart

Rejoicing in the sun as it soaks its veins. Tree leaves have veins

Crushed by the soles of everything around, the leaves are crushed underfoot after they fall -- Or logs used as roads

Yet towers over others that dwell above ground. trees are normally taller than those that dwell above ground

Without, it could destroy all life, Without trees life as we know it would not be able to exist

But having the power to support a king’s might. Maybe the wood of a tree can build a castle? Or be used to build a throne. =P

So my answer is either tree or leaf

Added some further arguments. Great find, badudi!

The earth/ground

Alive without a heart it still remains, - Our planet is said to be alive (mother earth)

Rejoicing in the sun as it soaks its veins. - There are veins of minerals on the earth

Crushed by the soles of everything around, - You step on it

Yet towers over others that dwell above ground. - Mountains tower above everything

Without, it could destroy all life, - No earth, no life

But having the power to support a king’s might. - A king's castle is supported (and made of) the earth.

So I vote either the ground or the planet itself
