Unfortunately, description seems to be the one field that is not included in the getDescribe() method (See full list of available information here (https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.api.meta/api/sforce_api_calls_describesobjects_describesobjectresult.htm#field_topic)). One alternative that you may be able to use instead is to pull the inline help text which is set alongside of the description. I don't know your use-case though, so I'm not sure if that would help you much or not.
String fieldHelpText = Object_Name__c.Field_Name__c.getDescribe().getInlineHelpText();
The down side of using the Help Text is that any contents are visible in Standard View pages to all users which have access to the field.
Again, I don't know the full scenario for why you need this functionality, but you might also want to look into using Custom Settings. You could create a map of each field and its description (or whatever information you're trying to gather).
