A/N : this poem was written a bit too late but its written with the theme of chess in mind , the credits duly belong to the Winter Poetry Contest ^^
below is the link to the contest, hope yall join ^^



from the start 

i allowed you to win

yes, to see you win

but also it was fun too

to make it look like

i was allowing you to

win

those were our good ol days

which my heart wouldnt forget

despite your present coldness


you know how to attack your way out

your ways of checkmating in both of the games

both real and ours

was humdinger

didnt you know 

i lacked that mind to strategise and

plan out an attack on you?

all my attacks were minimal

at the most all i thought was

tit for tat

if you remove my piece, i remove yours

but you know clearly

that its not enough to checkmate

you knew i lacked the thinking ahead to seize you


then what made you

dip the game in the mid way?


what made you 

dip from us like the being gone with the wind?


tis a mystery

and as long as it remains as such

you might be assured 

that my pawn might get to the last square

and checkmate out

its only a matter of time

oh grandmaster 

imma learn your moves


i hope

or atleast thats how i console myself


i wonder how are you consoling yourself
