A/N: I really struggled with the title, lol. So I settled for something slightly straightforward. Well, at least I think it's specific.

Anyway, this one's for the December challenge hosted by Project_Athena, inspired by prompt 9.

I haven't encountered the sun nor any blossoms
For we're always torn apart by the pattern of time
Your musky perfume is alien to my nostrils
And your floral lips are foreign to mine

I thirst for the taste of your treacly tongue
But all I drink is your biting absence
Only frigid air floods my lungs
When I try to inhale your fragrance

I long for your velvet-petal skin
To grace my gelid palms
But all I feel is the icy sting
Of the vacancy between my arms

My freezing fingertips reach
For a warmth I cannot obtain
My world is made of frozen streets
And blizzards and pelting rain

I search for your balmy embrace
A barrier to block out the cold
I wish to witness your rosy face
Instead, I see the winter snow

I want your euphonious voice
Redolent of birds' melody
To substitute the noise
Of my palpitating heartbeat

However, I constantly hear
The violent rush of wind
Slicing past my ears
And into my rimy skin

My glacial heart burns
Like a fervent wildfire
For you alone, I yearn
With desperate desire

Unfortunately, what I want to achieve
Is what I will never have
For when you arrive, I must leave
As two seasons can never cross paths
