In the heart of Tigray is a profound sorrow and undying resilience. The poetry collection you are about to delve into is not just a series of verses, but a collective cry, a testament to the indomitable spirit of the Tigrayan people. This book, "Echoes of Tigray - I," seeks to give a glimpse of the anguish, the courage, and the unyielding hope that have marked our journey through one of the darkest chapters in our history, genocide.
Each poem narrates the experiences of those who have lived through weaponized starvation, weaponized rape, massacre, cultural destruction, infrastructure destruction, and displacement. The poetry in this collection is not merely about suffering; it is also about resistance and the unwavering will to survive. Each poem serves as a beacon of hope, a call for justice, and a reminder that the human spirit can endure even the greatest adversities.
May you find not only the echoes of our pain but also the resonance of our hope. These poems are a glimpse of our history, our truth, and our plea for a future where Tigray's nights are no longer filled with silent suffering, but with the dawn of peace and healing.
In compiling these works, I made heavy use of news sources. This book is a tribute to the strength of Tigray's people, a chronicle of their struggles and triumphs. It is my hope that through this work, the voices of Tigray will reach the hearts of many, inspiring solidarity, compassion, and action.
With deepest respect and hope,
Batseba
