A KISS, Poetry by S H A

A kiss
What a kiss
Strong enough to dismiss time
How much time I don't know
I lost myself within Sky
A delicious ascent
Surpassing boundaries of consciousness
Locked in his arms
Every other thing now gone
And it seemed like we were the fated ones…

The last two people on Earth
Pent up desires finally being released
Curiosities confirmed
As we…lose ourselves to one another
Equally shocked at each other
Never knowing the other
Possessed so such wicked passion in between our lips

That a kiss, delicious, delectable kiss
Would leave us both stiff
At just the thought of it
I fall into a lucid state-of-mind
Desire in my eyes
A whisper to my words
Disturbed, I hear voices say, “…Are you ok?”
Am I?
Slowly descending from Sky

Dear God I…think we just met

Warm places still wet
Slowly regaining consciousness
Questions float to the surface: What did I do to deserve this?
Worthy or am I worthless?
Is he just teasing me?
Or leading me onto a happier path?
I don't know, so I have to ask
Because his kiss
Pure bliss
Set my soul adrift
And I wonder if…this means what I hope it means
Patiently, I'll wait and see
As I nurse the hangover from…his kiss


SHA is the First Lady of GHETTOHEAT®, an 80s baby born in Brooklyn who grew up in Queens. In 2006, SHA attained her Bachelors of Science degree in Psychology and is currently working towards her Masters. Writing has always been SHA’s way of dealing with life, penning poetry since the age of nine.

SHA recently tried her hand at fiction, growing tired of the monotonous titles that filled the African-American section of the bookstore where she worked at. Proudly representing for young women within the inner-city, being a creative force who speaks directly to her generation, SHA is currently working on the sequel to her suspenseful novel, HARDER.
