Checkmate

We played Chess
For Sex
Exchange for Love Expressed
So I use my Pawns to get through the Queens Fortress
Looking behind Her Forces at my Fortune
Which was The Queen Fortunate
My Knights Armored in White
With Swords to Strike
Reward to Fight
For the Kings Light
Before Him was Bright
So I had prepared for them Ornament's
With Her Crown in my Hand Anointed
With Ointment
Waiting to join Forces
Her Heart been in Torments
In Whirlwinds 
But Around it is Pearls Boiling
Inside Adorned Orbs of Light 
I Wave to my Bishops For their Coordinates
The Previous Jewel is Glorious 
Her Heart and Fright
Scares her to Love 
So After my Move spins the Board
I can look in her Eyes and see Doves
In this Game of love it has to shed Blood
I'm close to her An I holler out Checkmate
I wipe off the tears from her Face
An Embrace
My Queen
