Alabastor Box

By Tagen



Weeping maiden
At My feet
So soon I'd wish
To cherish thee.

300 pounds pence,
The rate is fair:
"Allow me to wipe Your feet
with my hair."

I nodded simply, 
And thought of thee.
'A sinister one 
Is after these.'

So, I swore to protect,
And love without spite
In it's entirety,
My Bride and My wife.

    Romantic with a sweet sound. I liked this because it was simple yet very expressive and to the point. :)

    Thank you!! It's about the woman in the Bible who kissed Jesus' feet and anointed them with costly oil.
