Ocelot's Poetry and Songs

	Quiet Tears (song)
	quite tears of grief punctuate his disbelief empty words of promised joy can't console this quiet, aching boy and all his tears like raindrops fall midst silent fears on noisy halls and no one's cheers can pass these walls today sterile walls so cold reminisce of wounds so old and time she slips away they meet again beneath the clouds so grey yes time speeds by and dulls the pain and tears run dry like every rain it quells each lie - turns sobs to sighs darkness turns to grey slowly time slips by sobbing turns to sighs emptiness recedes comfort breaks along the shores of needs and all these tears through all these years fade like memories of fears to be replaced by love's embrace this day for love enclosed in heaven's hand transcends the pain of mortal man as hands once pierced embrace so fierce twilight turns to day quiet tears of joy finally fill his jagged void as a whisper soft and kind dances lightly through his mind when the voice that calmed the sea whispers "child, you belong to me."
