To my daughter

"I will have poetry in my life. And adventure. And love. Love above all. No...not the artful postures of love, not playful and poetical games of love for the amusement of an evening. but love that...overthrows life. Unbiddable, ungovernable, like a riot in the heart, and nothing to be done, come ruin or rapture." - from Shakespeare in Love

This is what motherhood feels like to me already. That underneath the uncertainty, between all the changes of my body and identity, this is the truth I have been seeking all my life without ever knowing what I sought. I love you my darling, I love you hasta la luna. And I can't wait to meet you.
