Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening

You cen feel the anguish in every word Ammos writes, the man seems to be writing about a relationship which has growing to become codependent, he both wants to seperate from a need to be himself but his autonamy is threatend by his neurosis of thinking he needs that person, fo fullfill himself. This is the catch 22 of love understanding that every relationship needs healthy boundries.
