  • Today is her birthday

    Today is Rebecca Baruch her birthday – she would have turned 25 ♡
    I remember so many of her bday parties, especially the one where we made pizza and watched 4 (!) movies in one night and the one where we played a murder mystery game – she gave me the role of the marching band boy so I could live out some My Chemical Romance dreams
    I wrote a poem for this day, and also wish to share some of the poems I wrote for her before ♡
    25 years
    1. Not yet
    2. Did I know you
    3. But soon
    4. I would! In Kindergarten we met
    5. Played with wood
    6. Read fast
    7. Grew taller
    8. Made plays with monkeys
    9. Were classmates
    10. But most of all such close friends
    11. We had our final musical, and you were so funny
    12. Playing the role of Rosa, on the stage
    13. We went to Haganum
    14. Still in class together
    15. Learning Greek and Latin and
    16. Travelling to Italy
    17. We stayed close
    18. Even when you moved far
    19. To Israël, a country you love
    20. But we met
    21. When you were here
    22. And kept in touch
    23. No fear
    24. Because we would always be friends
    25. Always ♡
