what am i looking through…

a lifting

i looked from within my shell,
from within my reasoning,
a judgement to find.

why did they make this?
i wondered if
they enjoy doing it.

then there came an answer.
the making is not mine.
there is no judgement for me to find.

a soul weight lifted.
my sight, as with tears, cleared.
a new way of seeing appeared.
