Analysis of The Treaty of Autumn
Did I ever kiss you?
Or was it all vision
Did I ever touch you?
Or was it all mirage
Did I ever scent you?
Or was it all perfume
Did I ever love you?
Or was it illusion
Did I sign the treaty of autumn?
The ink on the table next to your portrait
Can I forget you?
Will I be able?
Your body half naked leaning to table
The treaty is signed with the blood from my ticker
Will I be able to change article 15?
