MARY MAGDALENE
I have nails driven through me
I wear a crown of thorn
But what hurts me most is
Seeing how you mourn
Standing before me
An ocean us part
You could never have me, Mary
You knew it from the start
Mary Magdalene
Mary Magdalene
I know your heart is bursting
Of all that could have been
I will heal your broken heart
Before your tears have dried
I can walk on water, Mary
I’ll cross the great divide
I have healed the blind
The hungry ones I fed
I drove seven demons
out of your head
Mary Magdalene
Mary Magdalene
I know your heart is bursting
Of all that could have been

This is a fictional depiction of Jesus and Mary Magdalene; you’ve probably heard the “conspiracy theories”, the Da Vinci code and that crap, the idea being that they married and had children. That’s rubbish, but I like the idea that there was something between them but that it wasn’t for Jesus to settle down and have a family, and so not only did he sacrifice his life on earth but also his chance to live with and love a beautiful woman. (Mary was present when Jesus was executed, and he also went to see her after he was resurrected, an occasion on which she famously threw herself into his arms and wouldn’t let go. But obviously the bible doesn’t state that they were in love or anything of the kind…)
This also happens to a lot of people, and it has happened to me, that they fall in love with someone and it just can’t happen; maybe there’s a committment to another person. It may seem bitter, but the truth is the love is still there, and the right thing to do is to honour your committment, always. You don’t have to be with a person to love them.
