your words speak to me
no matter where I find them
your words call out to me
yet I remain silent

For one that is usually so self assured
your words make me stumble
your words speak to me
no matter where I find them

"If you dream of a world in which you can put your partner’s picture on your desk, then put her picture on your desk…and you will live in such a world.
And if you dream of a world in which you can walk down the street holding your partner’s hand, then hold her hands…and you will live in such a world.
If you dream of a world in which there are more openly gay elected officials, then run for office…and you will live in such a world.
And if you dream of a world in which you can take your partner to the office party, even if your office is the US House of Representatives, then take her to the party. I do, and now I live in such a world. Remember, there are two things that keep us oppressed – them and us. We are half of the equation."

The first out lesbian and the first openly gay non-incumbent elected to the United States Congress
