Winter soldier

Baneen 2003 (Najaf)



It starts as a solider returning home,
With an unknown fate under the roof of a dome.
All these burdens that he had to bare,
Risked his life for no one to care.

Telling himself at least I could try
Ripped his arm as he fell from a high.
And while his friend thought he’d died,
HIDRA got him and then he revived.

Killed many lives, for he had no choice,
Found his friend and was led by his voice
Who stood beside him in every stride,
For he couldn’t even trust his own mind.

And as the dear friend left the shore,
The poor soldier was alone once more.
Lost in the ocean of his deepest thought
What if goes away all that he had brought.

Stopped his fears with a noble stand
Saved many lives with the metal of his hand.
Made a friend whose name is ALPINE
Who stayed with him till the end of the line.
