the gigantic chess board of disboard

This world is like a gigantic chess board
and we are two pawns that have been called here.
There's no high score that we haven't yet scored
and no game rules we wouldn't lend an ear.
Between us, there's no move we cannot make
nor a game we can't come on top of.
Though, often, before, our hearts would ache
from lack of challenge from those above.
We went on, slouching on through the life
and pretending we still had to fight
but these battles were no longer strife,
and new records were no longer bright.
But now we are players in this chess
with a kingdom, and a country to bless.
