Default Will water get sucked up into a raised bed?

I'd like to put a 8 to 10 inch raised shrub bed in a low lying
wet area (it's pretty wet).. will the bed be soaked all the time like
the rest of the ground or will the water 'seek it's level' as is has
in that particular area? Thank you!

By capillary action, the bed will definitely draw the water in.
