While She Stood There and Laughed
He lay so peacefully
Like a baby sound asleep
No color to his face
No color to his life
So helpless..
You remember him
Laughing, having fun
Like he always had
Like we all had
Then you remember
His cry for help
His struggle to breathe
His fighting to survive
The water taking over
While she stood there and laughed
