New Beginnings

After ten long years of being her

I am now the new girl.

I am now in unfamiliar territory.

I am among a million new stories. 

While I am no longer in a majority -
No longer in a bubble of safety.

These are the new beginnings
A new life; a new thing
A new chapter in this book
A new location, a new look.

New beginnings, new uncertainties.
New chapter, new me.
