A game of chess

Falling in love, in today’s generation is a game of chess

A two-player board game

The rules are simple; 

Each player takes turns to make a move with the pieces of another’s heart

Each kind and caring gesture is a pawn move

You see falling in love now is a competition to see who yells CHECKMATE! First
