I went to see The Shape of Water movie. It was deeply moving. An oniric story, wonderfully far from the special effects we got used to in the usual superproductions. A drama, a tragic story, and yet with such a profound and all-pervasive poetry that all seemed perfect.

I thought I really liked the movie. And then came the end, with a quote of Rumi, or Hafiz that Del Toro remembers reading in a book of Islamic poetry. It goes this way:

“Unable to perceive the shape of You, I find You all around me. Your presence fills my eyes with Your love, It humbles my heart, For You are everywhere.”

See the movie.

Be moved by the movie.

Yes. YOU. You, reading these lines.

You also are this presence, and I love you.
