the butterfly effect

the butterfly's wings
a myriad of colors
the brightest shades of our time together
the darker hues of the things we've done
shoved out of our nests
only to stumble into each other's
to bask in a shared and vital sun
a glimpse of our best
then the faults in our stars gather
we gnash teeth, mince words, and run
into an ever darkening west
a myriad of colors
and a lonely bird sings
