The Checkmate.. Poem by Marcus Lomboy

They say time let's all wounds heal.
That the truth hurts but lies can kill.
So let me ask you one simple question...
Did you make me fall so hard due to cruel intentions?
Look...
I'm an ordinary person...
With genuine affections, an emotional connection..
~ And possibly a physical attraction...
But that's thinking back...
Right now:
I don't even know where my heart is at.
I might have locked it in a chest and thrown away the key.
If so...
Then it's not in mine.
I no longer think with my heart I think with my mind.
Everything's a chess game..
Because I don't want to go through it again.
But I was never good at chess so that's not saying much.
