No More Words to the World!

Falling upon deaf ears and empty hearts
Draining our energy and tearing our clothes

Fearing the dawn and Mourning the loss

Healing the wounded and licking our wounds

Standing up again and again and
Lying in the dirt and sobbing over graves

Breathing in deeply and holding our breath

Searching for our bothers and
BRINGING THEM HOME

ACTION NOW

NO MORE WORDS

Originally published in The Times of Israel

Come as you are. Belong as you are.

No pressure. No religious prerequisites. No need to know anyone before you arrive.
