Ann McKinley Poems

When the wind blows I curl my toes

and wait for the breeze to tickle my nose
...

I wanted to say thank you.
For all the things you have helped me through.
It took a lot of courage Im sure,
To get me off of stupid
...

Failure seems like a constant patteren
Locked into my mind and its sensless chatter
Always concered at what I look like to other people
If I ask for to much, if I do enough, If I am liked, If I am loved.
...

So much wasted time
so much wasted space
so many wasted words
so many wasted breaths
...

I wish I felt nothing
I wish your words meant nothing
meant nothing to me when you spoke
I wish that they didn't feel like daggers deep in my skin right now
...

My heart it is calling you
Can you hear it?
Do you fear it?
Maybe I am insane
...

For as long as I can remember
creativity and inspiration always had great meaning
The longest time writing poetry
Just writing anything
...

All this commotion
swarming like locust's
In my head
and through my ears
...

You have an effect on me
Like a drug
Or a person with OCD
You’re always in my head
...

Being alone may be better

Then stressin over something that doesnt matter
...
