Sing

Sitting in my room I sigh ‘What kind of life is this?’ A supernatural song fills my mind Suddenly I'm not alone An angel stands before me Words are useless And thought are gone One idea is left Sing Sing Where this was coming from I do not know But I obey My mouth opens And out flow words and notes not of my knowledge The song continues Though there is no music Abruptly the lyrics stop their movement The angel steps forward And I fall on my knees He touches my head and smiles 'This is God's gift Use it to its fullest' My head falls and I sob 'My lips are unclean My heart is impure I am unholy' The angels lifts my face He touches my lips and my heart 'You are clean You are pure You are holy' Tears fill my eyes And a lump forms in my throat Words are unused Unneeded
