A Loser In Your Game of Chess
Wonderland Poetry Prompt Challenge Day 23

What is this strange game of chess
That has all of a sudden begun?
A relationship turned into an ugly mess
Once your king and you, my queen
Replaced by a world of undue stress
You think you have found a new white knight
I think he’s black, I must confess
Took away all that we once had
Neutralized your kiss and soft caress
The bishop knows he judges all
There is no way that he will bless
The lies and deceit that have come to light
The false love that you now profess
No longer am I your shining knight
Now I’m alone, retired
The lowly pawn in your game of chess.
Till next time,
Calvin
