כמו כל דבר שאת נוגעת, נגעת לי בלב

אני יודע כמו כל סיפור של אהבה נשאר רק כאב

Like everything you touch, you touched my heart,

Now only the pain remains

--Rotem Cohen (a few words omitted in my translation)

Sept. 1 usually marks a new beginning - with the start of the academic school year

But today is a SAD DAY

I was waiting to do Yoga with Carmel Gat

I was waiting to see Hersh Goldberg-Polin's parents wmile as he returns

I am heart broken from their tragic end, shot by Hamas after being held in tunnels 329 days

The 2 pairs of pomegranates that I saw on the same tree show my previous hopr and my current despair

Bring Omer and my other kidnapped brothers and sisters back!
