The Questions in my Soul

The choice now stand before me
Am I beauty or the beast?
Who exactly am I
With no courage in the least?

Can I stand and face my demons
Although I'll surely fail?
Can I turn from this sad darkness
Before my ship sets sail?

Can I turn this all around
This tornado called my life?
Will I find the strength I need
In something other than a knife?

Will you stand beside me
As you have before?
Or will I be alone again
Now and forever more?
