if i had known...

If I had known what trouble you were bearing
… What griefs were in the silence of your
Face…I would have been more gentle et
More caring…Et tried to give you gladness
For a space…I would have brought more
Warmth into the place…If I had known.

If I had known what thoughts despairing drew
You…Why do we never understand…I
Would have lent a little friendhip to you…
Et slipped my hand within your lonely
Hand…Et made your stay more pleasant

In the land…If I had known.
