Chess: a Game of Life

A black for you a white I say

You had a chance now u stay!

I walked a step for silence echoed

You took a move , A Grey erode…

I walked straight you jumped over me

I stood in front for you to see

You beveled me to reach to the king

the way you killed my shields of wing

The king may be the one you aim

All he can walk is limited to a frame!

Twas your move, now no going back

You stop it all where I lack

If twas a game, well played!

If a mistake; checkmate!

One had to win for all you roared

I wish we’d stayed out of the board.
