St. Augustine wrote a very moving poem about his version of love for God which goes beyond all his senses and physical needs and attributes. I can't recall the title at the moment. But this yearning that comes from within was love for him. Being such an intellectual, I'm sure that he had an easier time disassociating himself from his senses than most people. But to him, it went much deeper than that, far beyond his words and even his thoughts. If I find the poem I'll post it (if that's allowed) since it really is horrible to try and summerize a poem.
