Nefelibata

She gazed at the sky

And willed for a message

A sign that she was heard

An assurance that things will be better

The cloud started moving

A shape formed in her mind

She smiled at the message

And whispered a prayer of gratitude

As thoughts were heard

It did not matter if it was not fulfilled

A message received and acknowledged

Was more than enough

The fact that she was not alone

That hope was near

And a miracle would present itself

The future might not be near

But her faith kept her alive

Anyway, she was a nefelibata

A soul engulfed in her world

With her fantasy for company
