Battle Armour

A single projectile, the size of a ball flying at you
yet you deflect it like a mirror deflects light.
You are a powerhouse, with so much protection
your referred to as a brick wall.
And in the right hands the objective is as safe as a vault in Fort Knox.
Nothing gets past.
You put your body on the line to win a 50 minute battle
against men the same age just to be put back in its dark home
and wait for the next battle.
That’s why they call you the Goalkeeper.
