Seasons Of Loss -v0.7 R5- By Ntrman -

Across the years the seasons develop a dialect: a way of speaking to the self about absence that accrues nuance. The first winter after a departure is winter itself—raw, explanatory, a time of testimonies. Later winters know the body better; they ask less. The third autumn may teach you patience in a way the first could not; you discover rituals that transform the ache into a kind of practice. Spring, visited many times, becomes less a promise than an action: you tend, you plant, you water, and you accept that what grows may not resemble what you lost. Summer, repeated, shows you how to hold company with desire and with relinquishment at once.
