Upon a checkered battlefield we met, Black and white squares, a world we set. My pawn, you saw, with curious eyes, And captured it, a sweet surprise.

Your knight, a steed of noble grace, Advanced, a challenge in its pace. My bishop, swift in slanted stride, Defended squares, where love could hide.

The rooks, like castles, stood so tall, But in your gaze, my defenses fall. Our queens, majestic, fierce and bold, Yet hearts entwined, a story told.

Across the board, a silent war, But strategy's aim, is something more. For check and checkmate, hold no sway, When love's the prize, we win each day.

No king can claim this victory, For hearts have joined, eternally. The game may end, the pieces fall, But in your eyes, I've captured all.
