What does it mean to be enlightened?

What does it mean….to be enlightened?
It seems metaphor is as much as we can understand
To bathe in the light of the sun
to have it quench our skin with passionate fire.
To bask in the light of a summers full moon
and touch love somehow…
these metaphors reveal
within their divine exchange of light…mysteries of a transcendent primordial sea.

Somewhere between these waves of love
We meet our soul within the light
We touch the untouchable
We speak the ineffable
We surrender trusting someone more
and we are changed.
