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.

Where shall I go?

Where shall I go? 
Where to seek solace?
This commotion engulfs me, like a hurricane untamed. 
They say 'tis time to choose, 
But what shall I choose? 
Myself or the mirage they made of me?

Shall I follow the footsteps I long carved before? 
Or break free of all constraints and wish for the best? 
What shall I choose?
MyseIf or the mirage they made of me?

Deep within, I quiver, for the much awaited metamorphosis "Oh she will not let us down", they say 
But now I see it true, I was never a mere reflection of you
