Why I Write Poem by Ndrek Gjini

Why I Write



Why i write

My little town
is a world in its own,
set apart from the wider world.

It is a town with no heroes,
but a town that never fell in love with fear.

The extent of its history is limited to
two or three poets,
an architect,
three blacksmiths,
and six stone-carvers.

I am a carved, walking pebble
of this heroless town,
not strong enough to fight—
that’s why I write.
