Yom Hazikaron – In Inward Stillness

Yom Hazikaron- In Inward Stillness

(Inspired by Psalm 22)

Not the final road,

But illusion makes it so;

Blind, deaf and stricken.

Despair invades me;

My land and people show me,

I betrayed myself.

For fleeting moments,

I lost sight of eternity,

Souls everlasting.

Salvation in You,

Then was and is understood

In inward stillness.
