Iddo Gefen

“Since the day you enlisted, I’ve been trying to catch time. Literally catch it. I reach out with both hands, wait for a few minutes to pass between my fingers, and quickly close my fists, trying to grab as many chunks of it as I can. At first I didn’t catch anything, because catching time is tricky tricky. After all, flies are a lot clumsier and I’ve never managed to catch a single one…I have since improved my technique. I can already catch with one hand but I always let them go…With all that time we’d have with you, maybe we’d finally start living, instead of staying stuck forever in one still moment.”
