Lost: Love

By Bwog Staff on Dec 24, 2010 5 Comments

About 5’10, dark smoldering eyes, and dimples that would make Zac Efron feel inadequate. Last seen receding into the distance through a hazy mist of heartbreak. If found can you please return him to the John Jay dorms, I will be waiting with open arms. There will be a reward.
