Throughout My Life
65: “Acquainted with the Night,” 1928 (in West-Running Brook), by Robert Frost
(1874–1963)
“Acquainted
with the night”—a phrase
That speaks
of darkness, which our Frost
Explores in several
sorts of ways
In these
most famous lines. The cost
Of
loneliness—when life is night—
An endless
dreary gloom that ends
All hope
that there will soon be light—
Or that a
fractured life soon mends.
