A new place
With new faces -
Everyone is new,
I feel safe.

But in a place
Where I'm the only new face
Everyone is looking at me -
I feel out of place!

My voice is gone,
My talent erased.
Everyone is looking
But they don't see me.

I'm under a spell
That only I can break.

I have to see them,
Speak my truth,
And let them see
How very beautiful, talented, and grateful I am
To be there with all of them
Turning new faces
Into faces I love.
