Why I live: to fuck, to drink, but also why I live: to seek, to dream. Because you&#8217;re a seeker too, dreaming on me, with me, in those lonely nights, together, alone. Those nights when all you have are your thoughts, when all you hear is the why whistling in breeze. Why I love you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just smile and nod.
