Dear God
February 23, 2013
Why was I born into bronze,
When my neighbors were born into gold?
Why were we made the pawns,
With our futures already foretold?
No matter how many moves we make,
We can never become the Queens.
We were destined to ache,
Due to our genes.
The Queens impede,
Us from success.
Is there purpose to this life of greed?
Or is this just a game of chess?
