A/N: sigh I have writters block and writting different stories tends to help. I'm sorry my 'Sleeplessness' readers, but you'll just have to wait.

Enjoy.

To: The Chessmaster

From: A Pawn Peice

Checkmate

I am not delusional,

Nor am I feigning,

The innocence I lost so long ago.

So, tell me now;

Why do you lie?
Why not explain?

Don't start to pretend you don't know.

I have spent too long,

Too long of my life,

Living how you want me to.

'Don't do anything rash'

Of course I won't.

I'm your little puppet, after all.

Or was it 'pawn'? I cannot seem to remember.

Yes, pawn, you old Chessmaster.

A pawn, nothing more than a soldier,

Though this soldier is not tamed yet.

So, no, I won't do anything rash,

But I will be your pawn no longer.

Checkmate, care to play again?
