Poem : Mother
My mother is similar to the dazzling light
On meadows and green hills
She is the symbol of devotion and wisdom
Of good guidance and kindness
Of virtue and patience
She is my refuge, my abode
My greatest fortune
My idol, my heroine
May God protect her
Keep her, bless her.
Safia Slimen
Poem : Nothing is worth freedom
I can't stand being deprived
From the least atom of my freedom
Free
I want to be free
I was born free
Like the scents of the meadows
I want to be free
Like the eternal streams
Totally free
Like the sea
Like the weather and the air
I hate slavery and its miseries
I don't know walking backwards
But I learned to live and love
without boundaries.
Safia Slimen
Poem : I would like so much
I’d like so much to deny
My past my future
I’d like so much to bury
My best memories
I’d like to stop suffering
to stop thinking
I’d like so much to leave
I’d like so much never to return
I’d like to give up moaning
I’d like to get it over with,
But to get rid
Where to flee?
Where not to flee?
From this cruel world
And worse from my dull days
And from myself...
Before the last sigh
Where to go?
Where not to go?
I don’t know anymore
I don’t see anymore.
Safia Slimen
