Shortly Before Shabboss - Jan. 23 - 14

My soul is G-d's candle
My spirit is His breath
This is true on this earth
and also beyond death

I pray to trascend
and to be human, real
to get out of my head
and for once truly feel

This moment is frozen
I can't fly the way I want
yet this lacking is better
than the image I flaunt

You Give Life To The Dead Part I

If I may say so

You are brave

eternally so

and you give

life to the dead

You save often,

make wind blow

and rain fall

sustain lives

with kindness

Our Protector

Our G-d

You were

the G-d 

of each one

of our fathers

There are no 

words that can

describe You

that can fill the

gap between us

Somehow you are

kind to us in the

best way possible

though You don't/

can't owe us a thing

You help and save us

and you protect us

and you love us

You will redeem us

as you loved our fathers

There's something
about writing
as you're falling
asleep, and the words
barely come out
and the words barely
appear on the page

20.

My heart keeps beating crazy fast
Perseverating on the past
I can't fall asleep filled with dread
all alone in my little bed

19 See-see

We say
yes I
see you
when I
look at
you but
I mean
I see
just me
I see
you through
my lens
I think
of you
with just
my thoughts
I act
to you
my own
lone way
not yours

G-d please
help me
rise up
from the
ease of
my path
help me
see You
in him
and her
You good
You kind
You just
let me
see the
whole soul
of your
dear child
the You
in them
not me.

Oh Man

Why return to
the source of
disappointment
why focus
on the ones
 that won't console
why eat poison
why embrace fire
why be too stupid
or, worse ,too smart
for your own good?
