CHESS GAMES (THE GAME OF LOVE)

They say love is blind,

But I got in seeing,

Stupidity blinded me,

Because my love was so bright,

It burnt out my inner eye.

Love was my drug,

And I, its prisoner,

It made me go crazy,

And turned my intelligence into madness.

So we played chess games,

And I didn’t protect my king,

Thinking that you weren’t the enemy,

But now my castles are gone,

And the queen has fallen,

With a mighty crash,

And when we are on checkmate,

I realize my folly,

It’s too late,

No retreat, but I can’t surrender,

So I bow out of this game of love,

Put away my pieces,

That I have been torn into.

Life must be lived,

And blindness no longer appeals,

If love is the darkness,

I don’t want it,

If indifference is the light,

Then I embrace it,

These are my thorns,

This is my crown of pain,

Light cancels the dark.

BORN TO RUN

I was born to run,

Born to win.

Started out slow,

The Tortoise didn’t have nothing on me,

I was blind to my dreams,

Living in darkness like a Bat in a cave,

I put my head in the sand,

Like an Ostrich letting fear take hold on me.

But now I got eagle vision,

And I am gonna fly high.

I am going to run like a Cheetah,

Now my dreams are playing catch up to my vision,

There’s nothing going to stand in my way,

Because I now know who I am,

And whose I am,

And like an elephant in the room,

It’s obvious,

It’s only a matter of time,

Before I am a Lion, King of the jungle.
