I think that this poem is ageless. Yes reference to age would be the natural conclusion However, youth are not immune to loss or weariness. To me this poem rings true to loss. He had this wonderful love. Love which by the touch of her lips lifted his feet of the ground. But now that love is lost. She's not with him. And this hurt and pain isn't enough to sustian him. All he wants is the return of that loss and since he can't seem to get it, he just wants to rest and never wake up. For those of us out there lucky enough to come across this poem. It can speak true to us in any type of loss, signoficant others or loved ones. I know that after you experience a major loss in your life, that certain scent can take you back to the exact feelings you felt, good or bad. There comes a time in grief when you realize that this person that you loved, who was a part of your everyday life and a part of who your are as a person is not coming back. No matter how much you pray and hope for it. So in that very next moment after you realize, (for some people it may last only a moment, for others it may last there life time) there is this feeling that all you want in this world is to die, because it has to be better than what you are feeling in that moment. Then if you are lucky the moment passes and the process of grief and healing begins. I think true this poem Mr. Frost was able to release the hurt he had carried and I think in that sense this poem is very healing and beautiful.
