On A Life's Chess Board

I was the King and she was the Queen,
We were standing face to face,
On a chess board.
I had certain limitations and she too,
Yet we loved each other,
More than the enmity of our kingdom.

They were after death and we after life,
They were longing to capture and win,
And we were ready to surrender and lose,
The war was on between territory and individuals.

We were meeting through our eyes,
We loved each other in our hearts,
We were not fortune to suck the nectar of lips,
Nor could feel the gentle murmur of heartbeats,
Yet we have been fortunate to see other from a distance
We will never meet though our love will remain
On a chess board forever and ever.
