chess
are you happy now?
checkmate. checkmate.
always a loss,
but I continue to play a heartless
game and you cheat.
unfair, unjust, I fall
when it's your turn
your move.
they say love's not a game
but isn't it just that?
checkmate. checkmate.
you've won, congrats--
oh, what victory, how is this fun?
you watch as I struggle
then we play it again.
what if I want to stop,
what if this ends?
there'd be nothing left
for me to defend,
only walls and walls of broken trust,
and dunes filled to the brim
with broken hearts.
checkmate. checkmate.
I'm giving in,
hurt me, don't care,
I'm already dead.
I'm sorry I believed you.
I'm sorry I tried.
I wanted your love,
but you stole mine.
checkmate. checkmate.
