ELY

Ely has been a space mission, the last of the Space Era, I think. Ely was the woman I loved before leaving the Earth. Ely was the far away planet I've orbited around for years. I was sleeping for few hours in the appendix-module of a giant orbiting station, now almost abandoned. Ely also became the new name of planet earth when I got back. Now I sit on my bed, while the nearest star caressed my light red suit and the launching ramps, silent, were now in a most complete abandon.
