Heres to you

Heres to you.
For everything I thought you were.
You were innocent & young.
I only knew you so well.
You were someone I could really talk to
Someone that I never made fun of or found annoying
or even turned away, just because others did.
I was there for you whether you knew that or not.
But now, now I don't even know you.
I hear things, these rumours that are being spread.
Who are you?
I thought I knew you.
I may be mistaken.
So, this one is for you.
Why did you put up with him?
Why are you letting him hurt you?
Is it really love?
Or is it just obsession & overpowering?
Some may say "she loves him" but how can it be love?
Does she not see, what is being done to her?
Why won't anyone stop it?
Because they're afraid?
She got herself involved?
How was she to know that it was going to come to this?
She DIDN'T. I refuse to believe these rumours.
I hope you show up one day, with a smile on your face.
A lot say "I wouldn't be surprised if she was dead"
How can you even THINK about that?
Why won't anyone just step up, SPEAK up.
I hope she realizes what she is doing.
&if you ever even read this, if you are out there & you are okay...
I hope you know, you are strong, brave, &lonely.
Get help, because I know someone will lend a hand.
I may not even cross your mind, but today you have crossed mine.
So, heres to you.
You were on my mind today,
But I hope that you'll be okay.

This, is for you.
xo.
