The window remains intact,
yet the room no longer gathers around it.
Branches cross the frame,
claiming the space where air once moved freely.
What used to look outward
now only reflects what has grown inside.
The room did not collapse.
It was slowly overtaken.
This is not ruin by force,
but by patience.
