A poem to keep you warm

Oh
(for SS)

Oh - just consider my words
to be an extra sweater when you get cold.
Gas when your car starts running low.
My love might one day get you where you
need to go. Life is filled with destinations.
Where are you coming from? Where are you going?
Friendship is that road on the way to forever.
