Did you once feel that kind of love
That could break the heart of one
Who was not strong enough to feel
The weight one two thousand tons

How could one season change so fast
Going from long hot summer days
To cold, forbidding fall winds
You can forget the wasted sun rays

She smiled at the start of all things
So cheerful and filled with hope
But how quickly such things change
At first it's difficult to cope

She didn't see the warning signs
The ones you tried so hard to send
If she had seen them than who knows
Perhaps the wounds would have mend

She tried to smile, holding back tears
But why smile in the face of fright
Why not cry, least of all
But most of all, why not fight?

Because she loved you too much
Too much to ever say to her cries
Could this heaven not be everlasting?
Would she have to watch as it dies?

She would and she did, you know
Along side the few who cared
The ones whom you killed in silence
For speak they did not dare

So they watched, helplessly
As the dream began to fade away
I'm sure you understand the horror
Of the choices that you had made

Why do you fear their souls?
Do you fear their former happiness
That you just had to take away
Or were you denying their sadness

When you hid it they did as well
And you said you loved each one
You said you loved her, always
So what happened when it was done

When you began to share your smiles
What happened when another one came
It was just a warning of a queen
In this horrifying chess game

They were fighting to save the king
Thanks to this queen, two pieces cry
In the arms of a silent bishop
So weeps the fighting knight

Who will lift them up and away
Back to the world they once loved
As the changes are coming fast
Away they are pushed and shoved

Did the others care when it ended
Did one change lead to so much more
Who would have thought of her
This little rook opened a door

She left for the reason they all had
But you could not comprehend
The feelings she felt for you
And the message she tred to send

A season passed once again
And things seemed to settle down
Your little kinght began to smile
And become that cheerful clown

Could the gossip ever return
When things seemed so good
Could cruel words still be uttered
And phrases misunderstood

A romance sparked between two souls
Thought to be cute, innocent bliss
But pressure from friends, and you
Made the heaven hit and miss

Now the new season has begun
And adventure calls from every corner
A new day begins, a new sun rises
Not to be taken by a foreigner

Now and forever chances arise
Could a queen form from a pawn
Without shoving aside the memories
Of the one who had long been gone?

Yes, yes and yes again
Please say the dream comes true
For our hopes have been shattered
And revolution is long overdue

Could this happiness ever cease
But, there you denied them again
Allowed the drama queen her tears
And the attetion gave her full reign

Free to tell the poor little love bird
That she was much unloved by you
Perhaps a misunderstanding
Or perhaps it's the truth

Only you know and tell
Keep the knight from losing
Friend or you was the choice
Which one was worth choosing?

Did you realize the choice she made
During that final horrible time
The knight chooses the friend not you
Is love such a crime?

That the knight loved the little bird
Who the queen shot with words
The knight's intentions were just
But the destiny was blurred

You are the leader, the idol, the mother
Yet you cannot see the love before you
The children and is one thing
But what about the love that is true

What about him, your darling friend
The rook hasn nothiding for very long
You do not see the obvious?
I'm surprised he still stays strong

And the knight is still fighting
Wielding a sword through tears
Picking up wounded pawns
While fighting back the fears

And, no! why more words?
The knight has suffered enough
Yet the wounds put up a shield
And the words simply bounced off

Is time at last healing the pain
Or did the wounds go too deep
Is it scarred there forever
Or can we finally get some sleep

It seemed like another season came
Although it was only a week
Chances again, this time for you
You know not what you seek

You missed the chances, each one
To say how you feel for them
To heal the wounds, even scars
Too bad, this poem's done
