Hail Mary

When you think of prominent women in history, one comes to mind in particular; Mary the mother of Jesus. She suffered many hardships and mistreatments, though it may be nothing compared to what many women of the persecuted church faced, she still had a hard life initially. She was a chaste, humble, and thoughtful young woman, which are very desirable qualities, by any standard.

But everything I once held dear

Is meaningless, I hear
