the bus poem - part three; the slowest slow

I have a complex
where I want to be the best
at everything I do.
And you were
the best
at anything I ever cared about.
So, I need you to teach me,
I’m sure you already know
that I’m a slow learner.
So, get ready,
you might need to put aside the rest of your life,
or at the very least,
make a little space for mine,
when it comes to leaving you,
I’m the slowest slow to be left behind.
