The Stone Learns Softness

The stone shoulders a century of green— not fighting, but yielding to the soft colonization of patient spores.

Below, roots unpick the granite seams, patient as breath, finding the narrow passages where time drips like water.

In this dark grammar of growth, the smallest things become architects, rewriting what was meant to last forever.

We are the moss too, maybe, softly breaking down the monuments we thought would hold us.
