September 09, 2012 Prompt: Gloss
He Sings in Her Dreams
A glossy layer
covers his faded soul well;
ah, she fails to catch…
Ah, she fails to catch;
he just keeps glossing over
life’s golden moments
life’s golden moments;
she picks them all to hide in
a glossy wrapping
A glossy wrapping
keeps her gleaming hopes alive;
he sings in her dreams
RS:)
Loved so many different takes for gloss !!!

Covers his glossy soul well
I don't think that SOULS are ever faded!
Thanks Judy, that's a good observation.. but I have always felt that any act of deceit or a lie...takes some colour of soul away...it is in that context...To give wings to the thoughts which came out of my belief I wrote an article Souls Journey Back Home.. second post from when I started the Blog..in November 2009...I invite yout to read..if you haven't already...you can reach there from the index..
DeleteWhat you say is also right...but in India it is often said that we should not let our souls get soiled..
RS:)
I love to join in ... what a wonderful (cascading) dream. Loved reading this one. So many differences in gloss.
ReplyDeleteYou have created a beautiful glossy lace made of soft touches.
ReplyDeleteIf you take one out, the magic fades.

Lovely. It sounds to me like your heroine is pretty much lost in self-delusion, though. Women are good at that when in love. :-)
ReplyDeleteGlossing over golden moments is such a sad thought...
ReplyDeleteGloss
lot of sadness in places over there..its great to be reading into such depths of human emotions :)
ReplyDeleteSo sad to think of life's golden moments being glossed over.
