The Butterfly Colony

Well, I hope this is just an introduction to something grander! I hope you someday get down to the nitty gritty details and flesh out a plot and characters and the whole shibang, because so far I'm interested in what you have to say.

It died of a broken heart; though you may argue my romanticism of the events of your future it is my core belief that hate is how the earth met its end.

I liked this line a lot. The last little bit is a tad simple, but you've excused yourself by saying "you may argue my romanticism."

Our hearts cold like the snow that never fell.

I think this was a bit of a stretch. To say "[Thing A] was like [Thing B] that doesn't exist" just seems like you're reaching. Instead, perhaps you could say something like how the coldness of our hearts replaced the chill of winter...or something along those lines. Anyways, similes are much more effective when used as "A is like B" instead of "A is like the absence of C"

told through quite breaths.

"quiet breaths" I imagine you meant?

A story of the past which few remembered well enough to tell.

so we did as we had always done before when we were faced with an insurmountable problem.

I liked these lines, too. The first is forlorn. The second is like the embarrassed historian.

We fought to survive.

After your previous lines, condemning mankind's fighting as doomed and silly, this one felt out of place. Fighting to survive almost sounds like a noble cause, as opposed to fighting for resources. Perhaps you could give this a more negative connotation?

it came out of the darkness of our dying age, hope.

I assume this is what your story will be about?

So anyway, all in all, as they say in Grease..."Tell me more, tell me more!"
