Depth Of Perception

by A.R. Rodriguez

You built a coffin of my thoughts
To preserve their depth
The delicacy of your glass hands
Crafts the order of which they are stacked, carefully collecting each letter
As you realize the beauty of my words
Tears of definitions begin to run down your cheeks
Spelling out the mistakes of my life
But as each word overlaps they slowly come undone
And so starts the unraveling of my mind
