One by one I count the scars
Dozens lined up in a row
Soon they’ll rival the sky of stars
But I’ll not tell or show
One by one I count the years
Hidden by shadow and sorrow
Years for which I have not tears
They are denied me, well I know
One by one I count the pages
Written with fear and with pain
Hurt that does not ease with age
I feel it over and over again
