You can't. It's impossible. Even should one side make a deliberate attempt to lose, this cannot be accomplished. Moves may be made ad infinitum with the same result - no winner. The match will end in a draw. According to official Chess rules, when there are only the kings left, the game is by rule a draw. No further moves are allowed. The game is immediately over.

Assuming you still have your own king (otherwise you are not really playing chess) then you should simply chase the king to one corner with your own king and queen, then check them with the bishop. If you did it right, that will cause them to be checkmated.

Like all great checkmates you work him/her into a corner and the bishops must work together as they are not very controlling characters.

The way you win with two bishops is that you need to have the opponent king in the corner and the king opposite of the opponent's king.

Can you checkmate someone in chess with your king?

It is possible to checkmate with a queen against two bishops, just as it is possible to checkmate with two bishops against a queen. However, in perfect endgame play, two bishops versus a queen, without any other pieces on the board is a draw, given that 1. The bishops cannot take the queen or vice versa 2. There are no tactics with which the queen can force a capture of the bishop in a few moves 3. There are no extenuating circumstances where either side has to give up a piece to avoid checkmate. In other words, if the king is in or near the center defending both of the bishops and the opposing queen is not in the bishops' line of fire, the game is a theoretical draw.
