This game of chess has been such a battle To hold unto what's ours was the strategy Taken the pawns moved out one by one Her knights stood in armor defended by bishops Rooks fall outside her heart walls of this castle So its stalemate with no more moves to pace When king & queen can't even meet face to face She surrenders to him as that was her fate Moot point to him for the queen to make So she moves forward to concede & bow As the king has never given her his vow
