"Numquam finitur, donec vita finiatur."
- K. D'Angelo Alexander


Life is naught but a game of chess;

Make the wrong move, and consequences will ensue

 

Do not live a life under duress,

Just be mindful of the things you do

 

One step ahead, is better than none

And ten steps is greater than two

 

Live in the Now, think of the Future

Will your actions really benefit you?

 

Ask yourself the question:

"Is this the best thing for me?"

 

Before you learn a "hard way" lesson,

Think of what the outcomes could be

 

Really learn to play the game,

Before it is too late

 

You are in control of all your pieces, 

So use them wisely, before it's 

Check, and mate
