Sorry I’m late with this lol I wrote this on saturday morning, then spent the day watching movies and hanging out with a friend I hadn’t seen in a while. No excuses, I got lazy lol. -Alex H.

 
chess
 
Life is like a game of chess
And with each and every move
You have a chance to win the game
and you have a chance to lose.
 
For everyone who will take part
Those who play the game
Rich or poor or sick or well
Their pieces are the same.
 
Your opponent isn’t life
Nor is it time or wealth
The sad truth of this game is
you’re playing against yourself.
