Tears for Water

I’m normally not much of a poetry reader, but I did check out Alicia Keys’ book, Tears for Water. It’s not a surprise that she’s written some heartfelt poetry with true meaning (just look at her lyrics). My favorites from the book are “Unfilled Keys”, “Mind Sex” and “Love with a Shot of Distance”. The book does include lyrics from her previously released albums, but I must say that even some of these seemed to jump off the page in a written context with no melody to hum along with them. I would definitely recommend checking this book out!
