Check Mate

Since I'm a King it was my belief that I can move one space in any direction.

And since I'm King I thought I could do so without any sort of correction

But as I move across the board I see that there are many pieces that I've ignored

And the victory that I thought was assured only left me with heartache that I have to endure

Made too many risky moves with my Queen and she was taken away from me

And when life got rough I knelt in front of the Bishop to ask him to pray for me

He said, "Son, although you think you're the most important piece,it is with the other pieces that you succeed","So as you advance across the board, only relinquish the pieces that you can afford"

So like a Knight I mounted my horse and left Thinking how I could continue to humble myself

More importantly, how can they believe in my new strategy

When it's so many people, that are watching my moves, who are mad at me

As I stare at the sky from the roof of my Rook I reflect on the patience that it must have took

For people to understand the moves of the King

Who thought he knew it all, but didn't know anything

So as I stand here now with things unforeseen I'm advancing my Pawns to get back my Queen Although I did lose sight and I know you all can relate I just pray that I'm understood and that it's not too late

To get back my Queen, so we can both designateAnd take over the board to end the game in Check Mate
