Quiver of Arrows

I had a quiver full of arrows, 

but no bow to string them.

I had a quiver full of fears,

but no heart to fling them.

I had a quiver full of sorrows,

yet no bow to send them on their way.

I had a sheath of gleaming silver,

but no sword to fill it.

I had a sheath of youth,

but no sword to defend it.

I had a sheath full of enemies,

yet no sword to challenge them.

I had a sheath of gleaming silver,

but no sword to fill it.

I had a quiver full of arrows, 

but no bow to string them.
