I see no shelter

I see no shelter, while I move past the crowds, eager to put down the burden, weighed upon my shoulders. I see no shelter, to quench my undying thirst, in the scorching heat of loneliness, that shrivel up my hopes. I see no shelter, to hide from the sun's flare, that blinds my sight, hindering my journey ahead. For all I see are men, hastening around me, waiting for none but for themselves, among the ravening.
