Illogical belief in the fatal misunderstanding of
  human dreams.
Dreams that offer no promise of choice.
Wanting is irrelevant of having.
Even those things I never knew now leap before me
  and pledge false idolitry.
Walls of crubling stone summon forth images of some
  shadow reflected on bloodstained waters.
Wait for the fatal blow in the pale glimmer of
  dusk.
Angry child living withing my sacred hope, silence
  your howls of despair; give me peace when I fall
  asleep.
Let this night be still.
Dreams are only dreams, ready to abandon me in the
  predawn exile of waking.
I have no faith in dreams, for in them, lie the
  seeds of my incurable madness.

And so it those we live with

But we can still love them
we can love completely
without complete understanding
