stopping by woods on a snowy evening

I believe the meaning of this poem is that the author of the poem has had a lot of hardships in his life and wants to die. The author of the poem wants to die but he can't because he still has promises to keep. This proven when the author says "The woods are lovely, dark and deep.
But I have promises to keep."

This poem relates to my life because all humans have problems to some degree. The poem shows that people want to die during a peaceful moment during their life when they are ready to die but we can't because we have duties that we must fulfill for loved ones. Robert frost had a lot of problems in his life but he new he had promises to keep so he could not die when he wanted to.
