They're salty and they fall down your cheeks.
They tell the story of your life.
Everyone's shed them.
Everyone's seen them.
Some are for loving.
Some are for hating.
Some are from pain.
Weyoun:
My tears were shed over the defeat of my armies.
yet not a single lost love.
Quark:
My tears were shed over loss of profit.
and a love I managed to miss.
Odo:
My tears were never literally shed.
That made me cry.
Jadzia:
I cried over many weddings
and many funerals.
Julian:
My tears were shed after I betrayed those I loved.
And I never cried for the girl I lost.
Nerys:
I cried for my world,
and for the friends who died in my arms.
Benjamin:
I cried for the men and women I lost in service
and for my woman, lost to our worst enemy.
Nog:
I cried in secret for leaving my home
and then cried again when I gave up my ways.
Jake:
I cried when I lost a dear friend
and when my father could cry with me.
Garak:
I cried losing the thing that kept the tears at bay
and again when my planet crumbled.
Miles:
I cried when I thought I would lose my love forever
and then tears of joy when I saw my baby girl's face.
Worf:
I roared with tears when I lost a traitor love
and shed more when her son turned his back on me.
