This too shall pass (Sonnet)

Just hold it all in for a little more
This too shall pass, it always does.
What doesn't kill me makes me strong, I'm sure.
I'm not the frightened shadow I once was.
I know the answers lie somewhere within,
If only I knew where to look for them.
I simply don't know where I should begin,
Do I start with today, or way back when?
I'm holding on for dear life, won't let go
Of all that I've accomplished up til now.
I simply wish there was a way to know,
A guide book that could tell me what and how.
As fascinating as my mind can be
I wish it wasn't such a mystery.
