Faces

Do we lose our way 
Even in places we have been to before
Because the places keep changing their faces
And the faces keep changing their places
Where we live now strangers knock
At the door for the debtor who has fled
With no forwarding address
The failures can't show their faces
To the faces they cannot face
We hear the one who's hiding behind that locked door
Is a student who cannot pay off his loan
As he cannot still find work
He cannot go back to the village he has left
For the way back is not the way forward
For the face that has lost his face.
