A beautiful valley. A poem by Matthías Johannessen.


Photo forecast



It's moonlight.

The night is hot in your heart,

the water clear in your eyes.

And it is calm.



The moon is shining.

in the water table,

extends a white hand

to the hammer.



In a locked coffin

there lies the treasure,

Who owns the silver and pearls?

in your heart.



When you smile

I feel like the wall is opening up.

and I can join the fund,

your desires, your dreams.



But then it's like a cool

in your eyes,

the night that was spelled with light

leans against a closed hammer.



I feel the coolness in the darkness,

it makes your hair stand on end

and ripples the water-cold silence

between us.



And now there's no more moonlight

– your face is gone,

disappeared into a black mist –

your face.
