Love is Blind

I see you walk down the hall with my dark chocolate eyes staring at you

 Your wonderful scented cologne whirling through the air

Your caramel color hair swept to the side perfectly

Those striking defined ocean blue eyes you have wandering around,

but for what reason?

Looking for that perfect girl… how do you not see me?

You always get caught up in a love affair with those girls’ hearts

But why -- when you have me?

All I want from you is to feel your soft lips pressed against mine

I feel inside my heart pumping a thousand beats per minute just glancing at you

How do you not notice my affection towards you?

The Lottery Ticket

Author's Note: In this creative writing piece I was trying to accomplish good word choice. I hope you enjy it and I reached my goal.

It was a calm and frigid afternoon in the city of Reno. David had just gotten home from work and pried open a box of goldfish crackers to eat. He was awfully tired figuring he had a schedule full of meetings today. David briskly walked to his room to go put on some comfy sweats to watch his favorite TV show. While David was looking around he froze, checking his work pants pockets. He wondered where did my lottery ticket go? David panicked because the lottery numbers were coming out later that night on Fox 6 news and he was positive that he would win this time. David rushed out his front door down to the first level of his apartment building to go search in his BMW.

            David finally approached his car. He looked everywhere but the lottery ticket was nowhere to be found. Finally out of broad daylight David spotted his lottery ticket. It was in between the passenger seat and the seatbelt. Rapidly David clicked the lock symbol on his car remote and from there he ran back up to his apartment building. As he passed others going through his building everyone gave David a strange look. David thought it’s probably because of his casual outfit. He was known for dressing very professional and no one ever thought they’d see a man like David in Wal-Mart clothes. Finally David had reached his apartment door. He opened it very slow and this caused the door to creak very loud. David just made his way to the couch and took a long nap till the news would be on tonight.

            David woke up once he heard the weather man talking on TV. Immediately David sat up because he knew that the lottery numbers would be coming on next. He held the lottery ticket tight in his hand as he recited a pray in his head. At last here it was the Badger 5 was going by with its numbers, but that wasn’t the one David had. He was grasping the Mega Millions in his hand. Then came the Supercash, Megabucks, and here it was Mega Millions. The numbers corresponded correctly to David’s lottery ticket. He jumped up in excitement and thought about all the things he could do and have with all these millions of dollars. David truly was the luckiest person on Earth at the moment. He had won millions and millions of dollars and the first thing David was going to start out doing was quit his job. Overall it truly turned out to be the greatest day of David’s life.
