Check and mate

Show up in the room.
Your time's running out,
despicable.
Whispers about you.
Streets made them all get around the table.
Get into my notion.
Blue on blue, but I set in the motion.
Throw away the keys.
Hold tight, till you're crawling on your knees.

You're making it harder.
Cold glance, as your place getting darker.
I'll lose my strategy.
I'll agree the draw.

And you make your move.
Jump over me,
putting me in place where I know I have to be.
Check and mate.
And I'll break this game,
I'll lose my chance,
choking on your promises.
I'm falling off my stance.
Check and mate.

Wasting your esteem.
The pressure's on time and you feel it.
Fall down just to lean
over my body, I hoped you'll heal it.
Lock me under staircase.
You're benign, but you change with every second
as I cross the line.
Your hands say I'm not worth the dime.

And now my mind is fickle,
but your majesty makes me feel little,
and darling, pass down my passed pawns -
you don't get it.

So it's your move -
shoot down my crown.
Your crust is scuttling closer.
I'm rooted to the ground.
Check and mate.
So kill the king,
the kingdom's yours.
Hallways getting leaden.
The glass replaced my bones.
Check and mate.

Touch me,
don't make me stand.
Check and mate.
Touch me,
my shape's in your hands.
Check and mate.

You kiss the veil on my face,
then you put me down with your absence.
Make your move.

Confederate me,
so you fled the scene, now you lend me
your side of this story,
that you're telling.
