Melting Ice

Ice that has been frozen
For decades is now melting
Due to global warming
Glaciers the size of a football field
Is floating in unchartered waters
It seems lost and at a stand still 
With the thick ice that’s melting
Means that the water has to
Find a place to go, and with sea levels
Rising higher each year
Says a lot about the future
We probably will be living
Just like the people from the movie
Water world, dry land will be a
Thing of the past, while we live
On city size ships that floats around 
From place to place
Leaving a vacant world deep
Into the depths of the sea
