For the the fifth edition of Carine Roitfeld’s magazine, the singer reflects on her daughter Blue Ivy in the article titled “Bey of Light.”
She writes:
It’s my daughter, she’s my biggest muse. There’s someone, we all find out soon, more important than ourselves to lose.
I feel a deep bond with young children — all those photos in my dressing room — especially those who’ve been stricken.
Children I’ve met across the years — they uplift me like pieces of moon and guide me, whispering in my ear.
Beyoncé ends the piece by noting that she is not striving for perfection, saying:
Utopias they don’t much interest me. I always mess things up a bit. It’s chaos, in part, that helps us see. But for my daughter I dream a day when no one roots for others to fail, when we all mean what we say.
What do you think of Beyoncé’s prose?
