Seasons bleed: when we burned and died to meet

He was the night sky, and I was a star;
But before we met, daylight arrived. 

He was a firefly, and I was a flower;
But when we met, winter whispered chills.

He was a snowflake, and I was the ground;
But before he could reach me, summer shined. 

He was a bug, and I was a leaf;
Yet before we could embrace, Autumn secluded us.

He was the flame, and I was the ice;
When we met, I took my final breath.
