SEEKING WATERS by DORIS R. BECK

First Line: E'EN AS ALL WATERS SEEK THE SEA
Last Line: I AM THE WATERS -- THOU, THE SEA.
Subject(s): SOLITUDE; TEARS; LONELINESS;
E'en as all waters seek the sea
So I, my love, did seek for thee --
Searching through the empty years
With lonely heart and unshed tears.

But as, at last, the waters flow
Into the sea -- so I did know
That I would find my love in thee;
I am the waters -- thou, the sea.
