That is very old English, that isn't spoken anymore. The "'st" conjugation is a very old term for "you currently do", or "you currently have".
In that sentence, what Shakespeare is saying in "Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow'st" is "Don't lose the beauty you have."
"Fair" is a term for "beauty", as in "fair maiden".
"But thy eternal Summer shall not fade, nor lose possession of that fair thou ow'st" is a very sweet line from that sonnet, that as a whole means "Your good days will never end, and you will never lose your beauty."
I hope that helps. :)

"ow'st" isn't a word.
It's a joke in English to add " 'st " to the end of words. For example, "Whom'st". It's a joke on the internet and nothing more.

"Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer's lease hath all too short a date:
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimmed;
And every fair from fair sometimes diclines,
By chance,or nature's changing course,untrimed:"
what does these mean?
