Thinly spread like ice sheets in the arctic sea; look through and see the deep depths of ocean water blue, tap tap tap and leave a crack. Spreading thin and far, encompassing a continent with the chill of realizing spreading thin the way I do leaves me tiptoeing across, tripping on a crack and breaking all the way through. Chills down my spine, hypothermia creeps in quick and I grapple for solid groud but thin ice can't hold me now, nor did it ever. Vast and thin left me falling in and now I can't swim, ice blue depths **** me in and all the lights grow dim.

Ice sheets
Thinly spread like ice sheets in the arctic sea; look through and see the deep depths of ocean water blue, tap tap tap and leave a crack. Spreading thin and far, encompassing a continent with the chill of realizing spreading thin the way I do leaves me tiptoeing across, tripping on a crack and breaking all the way through. Chills down my spine, hypothermia creeps in quick and I grapple for solid groud but thin ice can't hold me now, nor did it ever. Vast and thin left me falling in and now I can't swim, ice blue depths **** me in and all the lights grow dim.
I realized that I don't commit to anything; church, work, school, people. I spread myself to thin so I'm at least widespread but I don't know if that's better than being invested in a few things and succeeding at them.
