Robert Frost's 'Acquainted With The Night'

In the poem, “Acquainted with the Night,” Robert Frost gives us many themes that both relate to the author and the readers. Three themes that stand out are isolation, dissatisfaction, and time. And with these the author is showing us the point of the poem and what he hopes for us to learn and understand.
The poem shows that the speaker is very acquainted with the night, in the poem he has no friends or family. He avoids the watchman, who is the only other human being in the poem (Line 6) “And dropped my eyes, unwilling to explain.” He hears a cry, but the poem becomes even more depressed and isolated when he reflects that the cry is not for him (Line 10) “But not to call me back or say good-bye.” It seems that the speaker is acquainted with

the night and the isolation that comes with it, and is not friends with anything in this world.
The speaker is dissatisfied and can’t get any satisfaction from his environment. He's sad, lonely, and distant, but at the same time, nothing seems to be wrong. But yet he has walked at night so much that he can't have hated it (Line 1) “I have been one acquainted with the night.” It’s like something about the beauty of the moon and the night attracts him, though he is left unfulfilled. (Line 13) “Proclaimed the time was neither wrong nor right.”
Time is an important part of this poem, the amount of time spent in the night might show us how deep is depression and loneliness is. The repetition of the phrase "I have” seems to signal that the poem speaks about multiple repeated nights, which all took place in the past. At the same time, all of the events in the poem easily could have taken place in one night. This makes the speaker seem lost in the hours of the night, (Line 13) “The time is neither wrong nor right.”
This poem is personal because of what it is based off of. Isolation, dissatisfaction, and time all things that everyone has experienced and worried about. Whether it is isolating yourself from the world because something very sad has happened. Maybe some days nothing makes you happy or satisfied. Or maybe you're worried about the time you’ve been alone and how long you have left on earth. Everyone experiences this as people because we aren’t always occupied with happiness to realize the sadness.
