Alicia reads an original poem inspired by our collective need for healing, justice, and light.
– KEYS SOULCARE
“We need more than poems. We need systemic change.” — Alicia Keys
Please place the light in the hearts that feel darkness.
Place the wings on the backs of those that feel hopeless.
Place love in the souls of the ones that are heartless.
There’s no stopping us.
Ain’t no stopping us.
There are days when the state of the world leaves us feeling bewildered and heavy-hearted. Then there are poems like this one — which Alicia wrote and shared on Instagram — to remind us that there’s humanity around and within us all, even when things feel hopeless.
We’re grateful to sit with this, with you. Hold the words close whenever you need. We’re committed to amplifying every ray of light we find. Because when we step into our collective power, there’s no limit to what we can do.
What gifts do you wish for the world right now?
