The Queen and the Pawn

I’ve colored this lining a rosy hue

I’ve clashed this rage with innocence

And in this bed I’ve layed and lied

Unwillingly, forgiving and torn.

 

I’ve carefully accepted this name

I’ve traded this face with beauty

And in this skin I’ve caressed and beaten

Unknowingly, the Queen and the Pawn.
