because of the slaughter of his relatives and friends his first instinct is to seek revenge but he realizes that it is better to stand down and keep these people in his memory rather than to avenge their deaths because doing so (avenging their deaths) will not bring them back and cannot fill the void that he feels within his heart
because of this he finds new friends in case the same should come about for him.
my spin on this poem would be the old addage “keep your friends close and your enemies closer”

you will have to post the poem, so that we can read and then answer. I think people are willing to help, but at the same time they are too busy to go look for the poem to answer the question.
Good luck
