My Dad's Shoebox

This is a piece about my dad. I've been trying to sort out my relationship with him for years and this is my first attempt. I am looking to see if it flows, any tense or PV corrections and if the metaphor between the shoe box and the coffin stands out. Any other suggestions or ideas on how to tighten it up with be great. Thanks.
