I reach up to an exciting nights,
we only live now,
this is out trip,
dear passenger,
I’ve been waiting for you.

I who thought, I had forgotten all that I knew,
moonlight lift me higher.
Grass grow green, summer never come too late.
all metals have to dissolve.

The heat warms up my cold  body.
I melt in your presence .

I didn’t expect to see you,
while you stood in the entrance, playing with your phone,
i kept wishing I had the courage to say.
“I’ve never formally introduced myself , but my name’s Herdís”
and then smile to you.
but instead I walked up the stairs with you on the top of my mind.
and headed the other way.

i saw you at a new years party,
and i 
couldn’t help but feel like i had to get to know you,

i think it was your smile that caught me,

you really have the most beautiful smile

.

six months later i saw you again, down town.

this time i kissed you and i kept kissing you all night

until the sun had risen and we both had to go.

i called you from the cab because i knew

you wouldn’t want me after this night

and all i longed for was to hear your voice,
 one last time.

i miss you in every light

Okey, I understand
I’m not the most attractive person,
and my reserved personality
which would rather listen than to
be the center of attention.
I see the good and in some way
I fall in love with everyone around me
I’ll love the way you smile
or how you talk with such passion
about the things that bring you happiness .
I’ll admire your tears,  hurt
and what you show me
that are concealed from others
I love you in one way or the other.

The heat warms up my cold  body.
I melt in your presence.
