I always thought it would be a game,

between you and I,

cat and mouse I thought,

me the cat ,

playing the chase,

never leaving your side,

wrong was I.

 

It turned out to be chess we play,

you chose black,

leaving me with white,

you being form the dark side,

and I from the light.

 

I moved first,

you next,

drawing us close,

game on,

started at dawn.

Bishop three move diagonally,

to protect my queen,

rook back one,

so you couldn't embrace me,

.

You with your black knight,

as I glanced across the table,

I leant forwards,

to leave a kiss,

upon your lips,

moved my last pawn.

 

But,

beware black knight,

soon it will be checkmate,

so you better move fast,

before it's too late !
