Shabbat Morning

Shabbat Morning 

Once felt like the source of all calm

Family, adventure, and togetherness 

Now 

Afraid to fall asleep on Friday night

Sleep

Not something we remember how to do 

Calm 

Something that's been stolen from us

We lay and wait for the sun to rise

Just an excuse to get out of bed

That deep pit we all feel 

We try to go and do what we need to do 

We know a few things for certain 

We are all feeling it 

None of us like it 

It won't go away 

Until they all come back HOME
