Beauty in Choice (Tanka)

by Sean Allen   Jan 5, 2005


One must often choose
Between two things that are loved;
sacrifices hurt.

But truth is made in choosing:
is there in truth no beauty?

    I love the last two lines, and how you portrayed the symbolism, I absolutly love how you brought that out and found such lovely fact in such a small thing.
    But, even though I did like this, it didn't have your usual in depth symbolism and writing technique. Still lovely though, just not my favorite from you. It didn't show me the dramatic imagery or text you usually use. Nevertheless, good job
