And pray that I may forget
These matters that with myself I too much discuss
Too much explain

If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it.
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.
