You're Not Alone?

fields of butterflies
and diamonds glistening
all around and we are
at home here.

thread unravels from
the spool
reds and greens and blue
fall to the floor.

a rifle goes off once
with a bang and of course
we are accustomed
to the noise.

uneven breaths circle the room
where we stand quiet-
blind and deaf to
our surroundings.

can we take a hint,
simply just soak it in?
we'll take what we need
while there is still time.

we have a mild mishap
and we are no longer
innocent and naive-
we are experienced and mature.

We are also so ignorant.
A gun goes off just once-
We never called a warning.
