Answer:

People use the lights to brighten and mask the dreariness of their lives.

Explanation:

It is in a very depressing tone that Sara Teasdale finishes her poem "Lights", it is written in a time where lights represented a certain status in life, a certain wealth, and is written from the perspective of a person that has no lights in her home and that refugees in the love that her family can bring when the darkness comes, she states that they are shielding themselves from the dark with the lights to mask the drearines of their lives.
