From the first fighters to the last of the commanders. How do you say ‘you’ve been,’ and we’ll talk in the past tense, how do you say ‘you did,’ without seeing you tomorrow.

I welcomed him and embraced him with pride. // Suddenly his blossom was gone, his seed was extinct. “My flower was cut down in his prime.” Asher wrote, “How did you go, brother? How was the world destroyed, and with it the ideas, aspirations and dreams? I promised that your character will not be forgotten, your memory will not be obliterated. I will tell your deeds, I will keep your being within me. You are always in front of me, in my mind, throughout my life. Your laughter rolling in front of me, and the smile, the smile that never leaves you in moments of anger, always at the corners of your mouth, in the shine of your eyes. “My brother Amir, you have sunk in our country, you chose to shine in another place and remain forever young.” Eyal wrote: “Every morning when I wake up, I think of you: Maybe today I’ll see you?
