Checkmate

She opens her eyes every morning to watch me beside her. The smile on her face with those sleepy eyes makes my heart skip a beat. She is the woman you love not just someone between your sheets. You kiss her forehead as she hugs you tight, she knows you're hers throughout her life and not just spending the night. She sits up in bed and ties her hair holds your hands in hers and says her morning prayers. Kisses you after as if to thank God he made you, little does she know you'll stick to her like glue. You watch her comb her hair as you stand by the door, take in how beautiful she looks so elegant with an angelic glow. Your heart beats faster as you know your in love, her beautiful brown eyes glitter like diamonds in a glove. She seems confused as to why you always seem to stare, she doesn't know how beautiful she looks through your eyes that care. The best moments in life is no matter how tired was my day leaving me glum and dimmer. She'd sit on my lap while I'd feed her dinner. That would be my incentive after a long day's work. Having her in my life was always worth. By birth I was lonely and timid mild as I grew older I turned boisterous and wild. My only remedy and my self proclaimed drug, I just couldnt get enough of her love.  What I failed to notice was something so real, my obsession towards her would bring me to my knees. She was perfect and I had my flaws, sometimes her heart left me in awe. So what I regret is the fact that she's gone, life is a game of chess and I made my moves a little too late. What good a king without his queen to save him from a checkmate.
