eight by eight is the box I live in
squares within squares
holding what I know to be true
win or lose
within this box I shall reside
eight by eight is the box I hide in
within the squares shows my fears
facing in front of me like an old friend
forever plagued by hateful resent
within this box I shall cower
eight by eight is the box I struggle in
movement within the squares all meticulously planned
moving closer to a grand conclusion
slowly I tread forward with slight confusion
within this box I shall refrain
Checkmate
