Veil of translucency,
You cover not what we see,
Nor what we hear,
But feel,
Our sense of what it feels to be,
That purest pride,
And elegant vanity,
Come shattered confidence,
And twisted bitter jealousy,

You strip away what cannot be,
Hide it from crying eyes,
Of those who look back,
Beyond the pool of what was me.
About aging and loosing a sense of what it means to be yourself..jealously looking back those who haven't lost their innocence

I dig the piece, especially the final short stanza. Good work.
