A Miracle of Statistic

So you feel, like a miscarriage
a miracle of statistic, boxed away and sealed

Where love-lost is a permanent condition
Faith a contra-septive thats declining with permission

And you kneel, and you kneel

And you feel, all that you portray
is a poetic world-view, that turned to ash and blew away

Where only your acting pierces their hearts
and you'd rather die before playing your part

So you fall, like a martyr
Blinking through paradise, Tightrope above all

A broken of a deviant in the clothing of a fiend
Blackboards miscalculation, never to be cleaned

And you crawl and you crawl

And you fall, cold, on bleeding knees
searching the rejected, rotted and diseased

Returning empty and scraped down to the bone
finding angels, breaking down, whats left of what you own

So you crawl, through the living-dead
As a monster of humanity, who'll murder for the remedy

Collecting every beat of every heart
Of those, who made you, fall...

 apart.

This is a fantastic poem that was simply a joy to read. My favorite line "Where love-lost is a permanent condition Faith a contra-septive thats declining with permission" Well done.
