Amy Joyce Poet ABC

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
