Snapshot Two: Capture a Scene
Walking down the street half a mile
to my apartment. I was crossing the
cross walk when I saw to bright eyes staring at me coming closer. I stared in
to the devil’s eyes and he craved
to take me.
The day started out well I was at
the Irish fest hanging out with friend listening to some music. We were leaving going back to my apartment I
only lived about a mile away from the fest and it was a clear night so I wanted
to walk. On the way back me my friend and I started conversing about how this is our last year
in high school. “Hey man how’s it fell we’re going to be seniors next year.”
Said my friend. “It’s going to be lit
dude We are going to be free.” I said.
We are crossing the last cross walk it was
right our right way. Then it happened as I was walking across a white Honda
accord probably with a drunk driver at the wheel gunned at me. “Damien watch
out car” Yelled my friend. “What the….”
I said. I saw the lights and my life flashed between my eyes. I saw the friends
I made, the relationships I formed. I
remembered child hood memories all the experiences I had with my cousins. I was happy the
last thought I had was about me and my family. I closed my eyes at that point
then opened it to see it swerved out of my way.
I learned how to live my life.
Don’t live it in fear but live for excitement. Live every moment like its your
last moment.
I thought when you said "I stared into the devils eyes and he craved to take me" was the most original and creative part. I also thought the writing was at its best when you said your life flased before your eyes! Thats scary!! I'm glad you were okay.
ReplyDeleteI like how you describe what was on your mind after the light flashes between your eyes. It gives me a detailed imagery of what happen to you.
ReplyDeleteI love how you let something that didn't end up happening to you and you used it as a life lesson and having it change your mindset.
ReplyDeletei like how much description you use in this story its puts you in the story and right mind set by the words you chose to use when your telling your story
