On His Behalf

Three hours to the rooster's clock
Staring at the pile of blue ticks of yester-hours 
Staring so hard, as to discover the colour blue
Wondering if it was him or you? 

Three hours after 
Still immersed in the discovery of nothingness in a dry chart 
Distinguishing nothing and nothing apart
..............
I know it could mean nothing, ....but
"good morning", on his behalf

Your beauty, makes "beautiful" jealous 
The sparkle in your eyes ignites desire
Your radiant hair and skin tone, compliments your every  attire 
..............
I know, he probably does..... but
allow me to say,  "you are beautiful", on his behalf

You are, but only human 
Emotions surge
Your smile fades 
In your lowest, your "superhuman" downgrades
..............
Maybe he offers..... but
Here is my shoulder for your tears, on his behalf

It shouldn't be my business 
My unsolicited actions, you couldn't care less 
But the sadness on your face sets me on the edge
"I will make her smile" i silently pledge
.............
He could be.... but
Let me be your happiness, on his behalf

I am no angel, nor half a Romeo 
But its amazing how you make me better from a distance
How my heart beat resonates with my mind in consistence 
How you perfectly fit the frame of my vision, yet in existence
............. 
Am sure you do, and maybe he does too.....but
 "i love you", on his behalf.
