let it burn.
you're seated in front of a chess board, deciding on your next move.
it's the tournament of your life. your chance to show yourself as a worthy opponent.
you've planned it all in your head. you're determined to finish this game of chess in triumph.
the satisfaction would be so great, probably a feeling you would never ever forget.
nervously, you glance at your opponent - charming on the outside, with lots of surprises beneath the glow.
as you play on, you smirk a little. your opponent is going to get stuck with your next move. you've planned it so well, and it worked so many times. your opponent is sure to fall for it.
while getting caught up in that moment of high esteem, thinking that you're way ahead, your opponent catches you by surprise.
you have now been forced to play a move that might jeopardise your entire game plan. all your dedicated planning and skills are no longer of use.
quivering, you make your move. knowing that you've already lost half a battle on the inside.
"checkmate."
you just got played.
