Break it Down, Break this Down

Break it down
Break this
into chunks


Chisel out the chunks
into pieces


Logged pieces
hidden deep
beneath yourself


Break this down


Cross this 
with what you’ve held


Held both
in hand and heart


Long enough
as you’ve wished


Break it down
break this into details


Little details
you’d taken
for granted


Details you’d
longed to forget


And just right after
it ended and began again


Break this down


Puzzle it out
puzzle out
the woven threads


Threads spurned
in trails


Trails only you
could track


Yes,
break it down
to uncover the
hidden trails


Trails marked down
in paths


Paths marked upwards
to your being


Just break this down
bit by bit


Bit of fears
you’ve accumulated
over time


Fears acquired
by experience


And learned in between
your gains and losses


So break it down


Break the secret
Your perceived mystery
and exposure


Mysterious nature
of the anticipated held within


Anticipations of your
known and unknowns


Break this down


Break and stoop
Stoop over
to dig out


Dig up 
the hidden strengths


Strengths buried
in circumstantial elements


Break the elements
break them down


The vulnerabilities etched
in your stance


Deep down
where only you
could reach


Stretch forth
and hold out
to unlock


Break it down
break this down


Just break it down
