Its just a word
Four letters on a page
But it can mean so many things
Passion, despair and rage

We use it when we're happy
we use it when we're sad
but to some its more than letters
to some its really bad

They hold back on their emotions
dispensing letters by the ounce
but what they do not realise is
its the sentiment that counts

So if you choose not to say it
and use words like fudge instead
it really doesnt matter
we all knew what you meant
