Love The Soul Has Tasted

You have known this love
and taken it into the depths of soul, of heart,
so even as waves may wash
upon the mighty shore of your being
they will not hold, for long,
nor touch
the tender skin
of your soul's softness.

The waves are simply a reminder,
a remembrance,
of what you once have known
and have cleared
from the reality, from the perimeter,
of a soul
who had tasted
the sweet nectar
of the gods
and made their truth her own.
