a two-way street
when two sides meet
mutual effort
mutual care
mutual want
for good things to repeat.
for happiness
and two-way affection
for acceptance
of imperfection.

with only one half
it becomes a dead end
the worst kind
cold, dark, and lonely
something that could've been
but never was.
a collaboration
that one did not prioritize
and the other did not understand.
if one side does not care enough
the other cannot support the weight of two.
one cannot build a two-way street alone.
