A Game of Chess

Two armies march
Light and darkness
Colliding in battle

When the game is played
One king will stand
The other will fall

The darkness is clever
A master deceiver
An expert at laying traps
At luring people into his grasp
He sees a thousand moves ahead
And can take you in only a few

The light is brave
A grandmaster at the game
He knows the pieces intimately
The strengths and weaknesses of each one
He sees ten thousand moves ahead
And can take the opponent in one

This is one piece that won't be taken
One play that won't be stopped
One trap that will be undone
When the Grandmaster makes His move
