Chess Pieces

Pawn

Rook

Knight

Bishop

Queen

King

All lined up on a checkered board

Now,

replace the checkered board

with a real-life situation.

What piece are you?

Are you the one that started it

but is too scared to fight your own battle?

The king

Are you the spirited adventurer

that ends up being the first out?

The queen

Are you the last resort

never fully appreciated?

The bishop

Are you the one that tries to solve things

in a totally different way?

The knight

Are you the one that plays by the rules

yet is never respected for it?

The rook

Or are you the most crucial

and most overlooked piece of all?

The pawn

Whatever piece,

you all have the same purpose.

To protect what matters to you.

Not my best work, I know, but I enjoyed writing it :)
