Crying
What silhouette fills the archway
heavy shadow of another life's war?
What giant against the sky dominating parent
who has found you out- where you are the authority-
here in your own dream ? Look again.
It is the green knight reaching to fulfill his quest.
Why you, and this night?
The night papillon muses on the wall
wishful the sky be filled with colour.
How are you able to help?
Dear little one won't you answer?
This is your dream and without you
what is there but the icy blast
crying through empty space?

This is very interesting. Some super metaphors. 'sky dominating parent' is superb.
Check 'silhouette' since it is right in the first line, a great word that stands out.
