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.
