The game begins fair, a side of dark against a side of
light. A few choices made, some thought out, while others were not...so far
I am the aggressor of the two. As I fight to gain ground IT sits and preys
on my downfalls in judgment, sometimes costing me dearly. I fight my way
out only to end up where I started in hopes to regain my sanity after the
battle. Then it hits me, an opening, one IT may not have covered. I
jump at the chance, but before I make it far my efforts are stopped cold, and if
IT were a person he would laugh in my face for falling one more time. Now
I find the one that is still by my side is me Queen, she is by far the most
valuable to me. She more powerful than I , protects me from IT. I
let her go her own way, entrusting her with my life knowing that the game, my
game, is lost without her in my life. I know not if she fully understands
the power she holds, my Queen, my defense from IT. I gaze upon her knowing
she is out doing her best to stay well, and hope the thought of me stays with
her. She fights a good fight, but must retreat as I did still holding off
the opposing. Both knowing we are outnumbered she looks upon me to sooth the pain
of the reality, as the dark night moves in to take her away
from me. I don't understand...we both saw it coming, we had time to
prepare, but it still pins me down with sadness. In the final moves before
MATE, I couldn't help but wonder why do things happen the way they do? As I
bow down my head to let IT take my crown, it finally hits me...IT has won, and I
have lost all...but that's ok, it's only a game isn't it?
