Lil Miss A-to-Z



Lil Miss Agony woke up to another day—
Lil Miss Bore stopped wanting to play—
Lil Miss Calamity blew away her shelter—
Lil Miss Depressed left another pointless letter—
Lil Miss Engrave played with her wrists again—
Lil Miss Fake has emotions to restrain—
Lil Miss Graphic got lost in her daydreamings—
Lil Miss Highway went looking for her angel wings—
Lil Miss Impaired devalues herself more and more—
Lil Miss Jokester found material from her gore—
Lil Miss Kneel forgot how to stand—
Lil Miss Loser is finding life a bit bland—
Lil Miss Malice is staring back at the mirror—
Lil Miss Numb can’t pull the trigger—
Lil Miss Obscene couldn’t find serenity—
Lil Miss Pray was abandoned by another deity—
Lil Miss Question isn’t looking for answers—
Lil Miss Rage wants to show her true colors—
Lil Miss Saturate ran out of bleach—
Lil Miss Tested has a fresh knife in reach—
Lil Miss Unhappy killed off her smile today—
Lil Miss Vain watched her blood shade to gray—
Lil Miss Weak can’t knot this damn noose—
Lil Miss Xtreme decided to let her demons run loose—
Lil Miss Yesterday knows the future is dead—
Lil Miss Zzz’s stopped getting out of bed.

About this poem

This poem is about my back-and-forth cycle of thoughts while living with cPTSD and autism. It's more or less how my morbid sense of humor and conversation has evolved over time from sticking around in this world.
