The roof above our heads
Safana Jan 2023
When we looked into the above,
We will see nothing but blue.
No matter what, your eyes have limits.
our sight, will never infiltrate the blue.
why? because nature has covered everything.

Above is higher than us.
below, also beneath us.
Our sides are not equal.
because we are all living like humans.
We are all the same, but not equal.

In this earthy-like life, there are obstacles.
like richness and poorness.
like good and very bad things.
like kindness and roughness.

Everything is near
Safana Jan 2023
Everything had collapsed.
No any distinct day to rise.
But we know there is a rising.
And then no one knows when.
Shape your joints well and close-fitting.
When your falls arrive.
It will feel sloping to you.

My bright cloudy sky
Safana Jan 2023
You are my bright, cloudy sky.
You rain it to me, happiness shower
when I am in distressing scenes.
The shower drops, removing all anxiety.
between evening, night, and morning.
I fetch the shower drops to keep, so I
Every minute taste helps to calm my heart.
I will love your hands forever because I know
You will let me keep touching them forever.

Don't fear our growth
Safana Jan 2023
If you give us a chance to grow,
We will let all atoms breathe.
We will never behave like elephants.
We will dance on the floor together.
We will never be like Tom and Jerry.
We will look like an electric train cabin.
We will go everywhere together.

The Bin
Safana Jan 2023
The world is a place to live.
There is a lot in this world.
Like dirt, dust, and waste
When this world is flounced,
the filth, the dust, and the garbage
shall be discarded in the bin.
Do you know the bin?
Nigeria is a bin.

Nigeria
Safana Jan 2023
We are more than America.
America is more than us...

We are corrupt from A-Z.
America is uncorrupted, Z-A

We are more than Russia.
Russia is more than us...

We are a selfish bunch.
Russia adores itself. 

We are more than China.
China is bigger than us.

We're jealous of ourselves.
Nobody envies China.

I told you the truth...
Everyone has to decide.
To correct the uproar
Then we taste the red sauce.
There are no more petitions.
Or let's taste a white pear.
But, with no pride
Since we overthrew the rift

Who will go around?
And bring us a hamper.
Except you alone

Our one and only Tinubun
Who he will remember is...
The others should sip some soup.
No one walks on the thorn.
Even as he lifts the world

In our country as a whole
Who is the target?
To pull the nation’s trigger
Then respond directly.
Our tinubun is the one

Who is he, the stalwart?
to inflexibly hold Nigeria
Our tinubun is the one

Who is he, the middle man?
Whom everyone is interested in
I said: "Tinubu is the one."

Who will forgive?
The forgiveness of occupiers
Tinubu is surely the one.
No ethnic differences, as I am Hausa, but I better vote for the Yoruba man because he has a lot to bring to our country, Nigeria. His vision is wider, and his mission has strength.

Since there is a lot of bitter

I am above the sun
Safana Dec 2022
"I am above the sun," I thought.
I am below the ocean, indeed.
I am floating up and down.
I am swimming between all  
When will the sun be awake?
When will the moon sleep?
When will the earth turn ashen?
When will the breath be extinguished?
When will love die?

Forgiven
Safana Dec 2022
I have sinned
My deeds are pinned.
When will I be forgiven?

I am just a weak
I know I can't wake
and my heart will break.

I ask to be forgiven
Because life is burden
For the sins been driven.

Lit me up

Light me up, bright star. 
Light me up to see 
the sun when its shine.
Light me up, friend! 
It lit me up!

Don't let me fall asleep in the dark. 
Don't let me be awake in the dark. 
Don't let me be fed up in the dark. 
Don't let me struggle in the dark. 
Don't let me be a servant of the dark. 
Light me up, friend! 
It lit me up!

lit me up to see my front,
so I can repair my back. 
Light me up, friend! 
Light me Up!

Allow my eyes to see the narrow
let, my fingers to find the needle
let my thoughts to be unclouded by bitter tears. 
Light me up, friend! 
and lit me up!

myMother
Safana Oct 2022
My only mother,
who sweats in the wet. 
and dried in moisture
for my skin to shine. 
She lost and had no gain,
for my face brightened. 
She is my mother,
and my only mother. 
She gained no appetite
when I was with her.
She tasted everything, tasteless. 
She lay and stood. 
She walked and she dreamt all day. 
She brought everything and
anything for me to stay alive.
Safana Sep 2022
I wish to invite... 
I'd like to extend an invitation
to those who dislike and envy the whole.

Those who mix kerosene and distilled water;
those who put the bitter in sugar. 

They are the ones who combine trust and deception.
They are the ones who turn things upside down and upside up.

Let me not befall
Safana Sep 2022
I am like all
When someone's  call
Will stand on a wall
Feeling like ball
I am not that, a tall
That I will befall
On someone's stall
When I get in the hall
Safana Sep 2022
In the office, he gave me a cup of tea. 
In the class, he gave me a light. 
In the outdoors, he gave me a pen. 
In the street, we jugged together.

He is a friend of mine from nowhere.
We go there and there together.
In the morning, after the sunrise.
At noon, when the sun is between.
And in the evening, after sunset.
My Cameroonian friend from unknownria.

Allow my hands

Picking up a love

In the early morning light

And, in the beautiful evening

Let the dew drop,

In the garden near the bay

And let N-and-Z be bright stars

In the darky sky close to the crescent moon
Two young lovers Nazeefi and Zainab
Wishing you long life and prosperity

Knowledge is friend
Safana Aug 2022
Knowledge is a friend.
Every morning I am awake.
And my mom says, "Friend awaiting."
to accompany me to success.
I am feeling to go, fall asleep
But, I am told, he is a good friend.
Who will take me to the light
Who will bring me a taste
A taste, a sweet taste for me
A friend who brought me a green
I have a friend who will let me be in blue.
A companion who will hold my hand.
Today, tomorrow and the day after,
Then, I will hold the sky forever.
And knowledge is a friend.
Let a good friend wake you.
Let us wait for a good friend.
Never let a good friend down.
Let a good friend always be found.
And, not every friend is a good friend.
And surely, knowledge is a beautiful friend.

The corrosive rust
Safana Jul 2022
Well! We were flooded.
When we can't be the cap
To stop the irritability
which caused our hearts to rust.
We went there to do many things.
These could be good or otherwise.
Such as praising and gossiping
Between the east and the west
As in the north and the south.
The corrosives are all around us.
Among the masses and followers
This includes executives and lawmakers.
And the Vice President and his presidency.
Also, Mr. President himself is a victim.
Governors and chairmen are rusted.
Traditional rulers are corrosive.
because of our recklessness and negligence.

Society in me...
Safana Jun 2022
We are born in
Yesterday and today
And tomorrow, we die in.
Here, where we rise to live.
Someday with blue and black.
Sometimes, a green atmosphere.
Sometimes, it's breathless.
Some are sleepless nights.
Some are sleeping at night.
It is where we endeavour.
To plant and harvest in.
With a brain and a ***
It's our communal way.
a social society to live in.
It has a viable living alternative.
Our society can be bright.
Our society can be dark.
We vote for what is right.
Today and tomorrow, decided.
On the path to reaching the bright
On the path to reaching the dark.
We are unable to function.
in the absence of society.
And society is not functioning.
Without human endeavor,
Effectively, we are capable.
as in doer and don'ter.
Why can't a doer be uplifting?
And the don'ter be a doer?
We need to recall yesterday.
To make a beautiful day ahead
We need to deeply look into the sky.
To see the clouds, atmosphere, and stars
We need to look below our feet.
Will the sand make plants grow on it?
Our society is our home.
We live in, without a place to call home.
It affects our gestures and postures.
like breathing in and breathing out.
In many ways, society is affecting human capabilities. Whether the masses or elites, they have the capacity to do vital things. Society has an effect on them. In Nigeria, there is no effect on society's capability.
Safana Jun 2022
Feed me, to feel filled to the brim.
in a watery run, as in a thirsty throat.
Never let my veins' moisture dry up.
Because I have irresistible feelings.
The dot on which I put you is pure.
The trust that nature gives is clear.
Let nature nurture the blue and black.
And let's let blue and black decide.
For myself, I vote for both blue and white.
Beyond sunset, there's the sun rise.
And, above sunrise, it's a sunset.
Above our eyes is a blue sky.
Below our feet is precious sand.
We walked a long way across.
We dig deep to mine or drill.
We explore it as gaseous, liquid or solid.
What is it, we are give in return?
Besides, we joined the queues for voting.
And the rewards are fear and threats.
The masses were defeated by insurgents.
Farms are no more but villagers' graves.
It's scary to walk alone or stay behind.
There are no more homes to dwell in.
but a pair of legs to run for survival.
Sometimes to win is to see failure.
Sometimes to fail is to succeed.
And in our hearts, none of them is right.

Jar of bitter honey
Safana Jun 2022
Sometimes it's misery.
Many times it's envy.
which brings about enmity.
Between faces and the sun.
And the sunshine trend is null.
Tongues and lips are not wise.
They licked one honey jar together.
For they are unknown. It's a bitter jar.
The bitter honey jar is always a spoiler.
It was spoiled from the inside out.
so that none of them will be able to taste it.

Maryam
Safana May 2022
I love someone's name.
Start with the letter M.
She has a quirky M.
She twinkles like M.
Who knows what M is?
I am the one who is aware.
The M stands for Miraculous.
"And M" is for Mother.
a mother to my children.
The M stands for Maryam.
She is the love of my life.
I can see nothing but her.
Whether in a dream or awake.
She is the beauty of all women.
She is the queen of my life.
Let me be a servant every day.
I can smell her scent of love.
And the scent of her scent.
I can see her teeth whitening.
As she smiles close to me,
I can breathe with a nasal sensation.
Despite the fact that she is odd,
But she maintains her innocence.
I really love you, Maryam.
Let me not miss you, Maryam.
Because I will go far away.
where I won't return safely.

Your love for me is filtered through me.
You are in me, every day through me.
You are floating low and high in me.
And you are circulating all through me.
more than blood flow-flowing in me.
Because you are my wife, close to me.
Your closeness is more than life to me.
I love you, my wife. You are all in me.

Unfurled
Safana May 2022
Madness in love drives me.
When nothing is found in me,
but a pure, love-desire in me.
I show no signs of nervousness.
Because I broke it, all for love.
My heart is fractured at no where.
And my legs unfurled to take me.
And wings appeared to fly me away.
Away, up in the blue sky.
I wish I could see clouds and rain.
To shake hands with an air-blow
To receive a kiss from singing birds
Those I wish to meet in the sky.

My heart is going on.
And the blood flows.
Rounding the body
Yelling at the feeling
And love is calming.
My heart is aching.

Add my name to the list.
Under that green, it is blown.
When I reach, I can feel you.
And my heart is given to you.
Love me, so don't waste me.

See, it's my pure fear.
Ambitious in my life.
Umbrella that roofed me.
Dew drops won't fall on me.
Aroma to my feelings, a breath.
Touch my hand, I can touch the sky.

You left without saying "goodnight."

My Beloved My Prophet
Safana May 2022
My heart is aching wholly.

Under the rain and the sun.

Healing will never be found in it.

And that life will be lost. When 

My beloved is blasphemed.

Mine and my family's lives are a sacrifice.

Everything is for my beloved Muhammad (صلى عليه وسلم ).

Diligently, He cleared our anxiety with peace.

Condolence
Safana May 2022
On my hand I carried a pen.
I want to write in black and white.
on a paper sheet like leather.
of a white camel from the desert.
When the wind blows, the edges wave.
We lost someone who was bright.
who made his people shine and bright.
He has gone with farewells.
Green covered his head.
And flora spread to his chest.
Fragrance diffuses into his body.
He is regarded as a saint by the people.
I wish him a safe arrival.
to his beautiful green grave.

There is no food to eat,
There is no food to eat,
no place to live,
and no knowledge to learn.
There is no social life to benefit from.
There is no road to ride on and
no infrastructure to see.
No family to give support.
No friends to take you closer.
No neighborhood assistance.
And no governmental care.
Why won't light turn into darkness?

Son of fruit
Safana May 2022
I am a fruit with fur like a cat.
I am soft to touch but bitter to taste.
Because my mother tree is so harsh.
I germinated under mahogany leaves.
For my standing to be filled with bitterness.
But, I appeared to have rough bark.
Harsh to the touch and sweet to the taste,
I grew up in the honey bee hives.
For my life to be brimming with sweets.

All on the stalk of flowers.

Let bees inhale scent
Let bees land on flowers
Let bees **** on flowers
Let bees **** on nectars

Let bees be safe

Waiting in the wings

Every day we set our belief that
the head's weight will carry
our body, because of
the heaviness of ourselves. We

Safana Apr 2022
"On my tongue is a sticky notes to state, but I am feeling shy because it's very secretive to share. One of the sticky notes on my tongue is to seek financial support, to be able to buy some food for my family and myself."

He spent 72 hours without food in his stomach.
After all the struggles of trying to find what to do just to buy food for his family and himself.
As I investigated his words, I found them pure.
So if you can support them with food or any financial assistance, Safana's Poetry Kitchen welcomes you.

Safana's Poetry Kitchen will take a hurry to spread the assistance you provided for the masses.

Accept our fasting O' Lord

Drained, our throats are thirsty.
Then the vein fluid flow is dried.
Everyone's eyes turn bright red.
And the leg won't support the head.
It has been like dizziness.
Our bodies are sluggish.
All because we worshipping
One God who has no family.
Neither friends nor anyone else
He is Allah, the Lord of Everything.

 May Allah accept our fasting.

I am running to reach
In a hurry to meet
Somewhere in the bright light
To witness the blessing
And blessed to be blest.
This time is brilliantly bright.
To supplicate as well as to gain.
This is a month of light.
Where there's no pore of darkness,
Except the giant hills of Mercy.
I mean Ramadan, the blessing month.
May our ibadah be accepted.
