Alice Chen Poet I do not know?

Black Butterfly

Black butterflies suddenly appear. 
Beating the wings in the air. 
I am dreaming, not aware. 
Shadows darkens the atmosphere. 

Bad dream awakens me. 
Beating sounds encircle me 
I couldn’t help but fear. 
Black butterflies fly in the air. 

In their mouth, holding my soul. 
Fly away from the windowsill. 
Dull and lonely, I feel. 

Darkness, emptiness, I could not resist. 
Like walking alone in  black forest. 
Black butterflies took away my spirit. 
There is only nothing left.
