LITERARY | I was named by the others as Pawn,

Ready to give my flesh and bones.

Everything for His Majesty,

Everything with my loyalty.

I was called by the people as Rook,

Brave and courageous steps that I took.

Always without doubt, without fear,

Would come go straight, far, or near.

I was known by the crowd as Knight,

Prepared for battle, day and night.

Unleashed my sword with shield,

Would come forth to the battlefield.

I was titled by many as Bishop,

Protector of sides, from bottom to top.

I stood on both sides, dark and light,

To live or to die, I would fight.

I was their Royal Queen,

Always beside my Beloved King.

Would do anything, sacrifice if must,

Would love Him until the last.

—Prophetess
