Sometimes I Think I Know (sonnet)

Sometimes I think I know who I can trust --
There are a few who have not let me down.
I've learned to ask for help now when I must,
But feel my weakness will be frowned upon.
The nightmares come and go as does my strength.
I wonder just how long I can hold on.
If only I could somehow know the length
Of this, the journey I've embarked upon.
Can someone tell me, will there be an end
To daily fear and flashbacks in between?
Will I begin to learn to make a friend
Upon whose shoulders I could sometimes lean?
I've travelled many roads; but I'm alone,
Still haven't found a place that feels like home.
