I heard a voice
calling form the wilderness.
Calling from the wilderness.

Not quite a whistle.
Not quite a song.
Not too short.
Not too long.

I know you
but you don't know me.
I know you
but you don't know me.

"If you choose not to DECIDE
you still have made a choice,"
said a high and squeaky voice.

I know you
but you don't know me. X4

Treasure found.
Treasure lost.
Not concerned with what it cost.

I know you
but you don't know me. X4

"Oh, Dear Darling do not...
You will be loved again,"
said a high and lonesome voice.

I know her
but she don't know me. X4

    Somebody I know said they felt like the voice from the wilderness is like nature or god. I know you but you don't know me. :)

I believe this is another amazingly on point and nuanced commentary on the insanity that follows emotionally abusive relationships. The abuser has no anxieties, no emotional pain, or salience/memory for that matter, so the survivor appears to be the crazy one, obsessed with the abuse and that buzzword that seems to ignite arguments about diagnosing people without a degree, etc. funny how you say the words domestic violence, abuse, abuse survivor and boom the subject changes. Anyways, I especially relate to her midnights becoming afternoons, complex PTSD often leads to this phenomenon, whether due to purposeful sleep deprivation by the abuser, or just hyper vigilance associated with the PTSD, along with the fear of facing people, especially your loved ones, who Never actually understand, even if they try, because all they see is you, on fire, screaming about the arsonist that no one ever sees, and who has been spreading lies about your alleged mental instability, deceptive personality, etc. the whole time. While the last thing survivors need is more blame, our society supports a narrative that blames the objectively innocent party because the blatantly guilty party has spent their entire lives fabricating a persona and we’re just being human, and human psychology is quite counterintuitive especially in the context of trauma. Look at Amber Heard. Vilified and not believed, regardless of what any abuse survivor could recognize as a fellow survivor instantly. But Johnny depp is a malignant narcissist, a man, and wealthy as all get out. It’s sick.
