dry

I ran far, and I dove in deep...

I found myself a love that I thought could hold & keep.

I swam a distance and I jumped high;

I found myself some pearls,

but they deceived my eyes.

I've looked hard and I've sought for long;

I've looked for other loves that claim to be limitless and strong.

My head says to keep going, but my heart's craving is to stop.

Lord, keep me searching. Keep me yearning for you.

I don't want to throw all of this away for something that I laid at your feet years ago.
