For a friend. Hint: If he is a jerk in person, a letter is not going to make him suddenly sensitive to your emotions.
Go ahead, throw it away
Its just words
A letter written by a silly woman
Never mind that it took hours to compose
That she pulled those words from her soul
Pulled them with every bit of agony
Of a wisdom tooth being extracted
That every word cost a bit of her
Of her heart, her pride, her dreams
As every word hit the paper
It tore a bit of her hopes to pieces
But throw it away
Two points, good toss
Its only cheap printer paper
And words…and you always said words come cheap
But if you only knew
How much those words cost
You would never say
It’s just a letter

Very Strong so True. When somebody pours thier heart out onto a piece of paper. To show thier feelings and emotions. Then to have that paper end up in the trash. In most cases not even worth 2 points. Is a real slap in the face.
Thank you very much... Steve

Love, romance, innocence, intrigue, danger, and lust. Life is complicated, and love even more so. Life, and love, can be hazardous to a lady's health. Especially if she's fallen in love with a married pop star.
