Queen's gambit

Starting with the book move,
Hii, it's pawn to e-four.
Don't act like strangers,
You've seen this move before.

Now my knights came into play,
It's surely an awkward move.
You won't understand my intentions,
And it might hurt you out of blue.

Now I'm cluttered in this position,
And there's no trick under my hat.
But I'm a true and loyal player,
You better believe in that.

It's hard for me to open up,
And castling feels secure.
I've placed my gambit.
Now the next move is yours.

Your bishop slashed me at diagonal,
And i have no good counter,
You say she's not aiming my rook,
But its obvious for me to doubt her.

Between this hustle,
My queen is under threat.
I should have been more careful,
And tried to avoid this bet.

But now I finally realize,
No matter what trick you choose,
You're just a noob to your opps
It's the game you always lose.
