Thirsty

Thirsty (Women at the Well)

18 Feb. 2014

You were thirsty

And so you made the journey

without a worry

knowing this well could satisfy.

I was thirsty

so I asked you for a drink,

but you looked at me and blinked

wondering why I would show you mercy

when Jews saw Samaritans as unworthy.

Thirsty.

I could see your need,

your cry and plead

for someone to notice & love you.

Well can’t you see,

oh my daughter,

that I am the Living Water?

I and I alone will satisfy.

No more will you be…

Thirsty.
