discarded autumn leaves

you used to know me
remember?
it wasn't all that long ago
we were friends
I saw you last 
in late september
you looked the other way
and that's the way it ended

I'm not new at betrayal
it doesn't make me afraid
betrayal is practically
the way I was raised
so you ain't nothing
but a bunch of old memories
that I'm burning
like discarded autumn leaves
