keep them close

keep them close,
was his advice,
you don't know how painful
such a vice
can be
when cutting
into
one's soul.
keep them close
and wander not
all hells lose
when they are shot
and god forbid you're there to see it
because you know
on your head be it.
keep them close
the night is still.
and moons so bright
bode often ill
so sharp of foot and fast of mind
a second left
of wasted time.
you musn't guess how to proceed
just keep them close.
they're all you need.

This is a very good poem. Good luck with your poem. I hope to read more soon. This was very very moving. This also gives a very important lesson. It reminds me to keep my family and friends close. It also reminds me they are all I need, not the cruel remarks I receive. This is very beautiful. Good luck and Happy Writing!!!! Keep up the good work!!!

Hello. I agree with soulkana: this is very, very good. At first I thought, horrified, no capitals or spaces or real punctuation! But it worked. It just unexplicably worked. Great job. I liked how is just continuously flowed. I think they call it an enjambement, when there's very little going on punctuation and layout wise.
Again, this is a great poem.
Thanks,
