Explanatory Answer

From the lines 'It hurts to walk on new legs' and 'And you for whom I gave up a kingdom...Can never love that thing I was', we can conclude that the poem is about giving up on something for love and acquiring new legs (the means to be successful) instead. That it hurts to walk on new legs implies the quest for love is accompanied with pain.


The question is " Which of the following statements BEST reflects the theme of the poem? "

Hence, the answer is 'Our quest for love is accompanied with pain.'

Choice A is the correct answer.
