I waited by the glowing light in case you passed by.
You passed me by before, when I was a young girl
I had such fantasies!
of who I would love and what would love be...
Come to the River -
We can take off our clothes
Jump in the water
get the mud in between our toes
its so cold in there,
and it touches all my skin...
We can lie with just our noses out
like crocodiles waiting...
Love to you all from Elle, UK
Words from and for women who love women. Break the Silence works very simply by allowing people from across the globe to share their 'words' with those women who are unable to be open about their sexuality. Your 'words' might sooth, uplift, question or inform; they might take the form of a poem, letter, or phrase; you may be of any gender, or sexuality.
