Bang
It goes
Against the wall
Shattered pieces
Broken
                             Bang
                       Loud crash
                  I couldn’t bear
                  To hear screams
                  Bouncing around
                           Echoes
Toy
With me
My emotions empty
My words meaningless
Syllables of
Nothing
                             Drum
                          Into my
          Pounding, pulsing brain
                      Angry cries
                             love

           Misfit Toy

Another dVerse Quadrille prompt, this time you must write a poem of exactly 44 words including the word “bang”. Hope you enjoy!
