Drowned out emotions

World War III perceived in his eyes

Not the first or last time

He wanted to tear his eyes out

The last sign of his vulnerability

But when you catch him smiling

Oh that smileβ€”

For a beautiful second,

My own demons stop shooting bullets

To stop and stare
I don't have a crush on the guy who the poem is about but he really needs to smile more.
