Far, far away you've gone as worlds divided us in a time I cannot engrave or mold…just shadows, just girlish shadows of you that I barely felt the moonlit breeze kneading that auburn hair. Weeping, my glances peer through those eyes I once knew so well. Now, they are blurry, vanishing from twilights we both shared: how I yearn for you, dear inner child, with love golden and mild… somehow, this heart knows you're just walking breathing, maybe hiding nestling right beside me. Oh, can we talk? For Silent One's Iconic Songs Inspired by the music of Guns N' Roses ' Sweet Child O' Mine' 8/5/2017

I love this, think it's a winner, so good luck in the contest. I wrestled with my inner child for years, in dreams and nightmares; now we are one again. Good luck.

Your interpretation of this song is laudable that it moves me to connect with the child within, "Oh, can we talk?" This poem has seized the moment. Thank you for your compliment on my work!
