wrapped in silence a slivered cry

wrapped in silence a slivered sigh
breathed its last of shattered cry
tears now dust and swept away
with the silence a breath did sway
call to me my gentle maid
heavens come be not afraid
dance with me of soft regret
last of one we will not forget
be welcome in my sheltered arms
rest thee now from outside harm
take from me all that ye may
strength for the marrow another day
