Bigfoot and I

Bigfoot and I 

I yearn for your touch,
I live for your kiss,
And yet our occurrence is short lived.

Snow keeps me from you,
Mountains keep me from you,
Swamps keep me from you,
So much so, I can only dream of us meeting.

Yet I know one day we'll meet again.
Where the sky touches land,
Where snow turns to grass,
And it is here when I am myself.

Your gaze stops blood.
Your screech makes skin crawl,
Yet I can’t gaze upon you,
But I’ll wait forever to see you.
