Best Poems Written by Jordan Hooper

The People Chain

People are people and that can’t change
Unless someone comes and redoes and tames
The new person that the person just made
becomes a person who will just fade 

And that person tries to catch a train 
to find themselves again, but fail with nothing to gain
And they find themselves not able to find themselves
in the midst of all their pain

And that person knows all the woes that the person brought them
and it reminds them of a missing hem in a pair of jeans worn way
All the person wants is to go back and find who they are
but that’s just the truth it’s hard being you when you’re not you

The person laughs and watches in victory 
as if they just did something good
but all they did was leave You to hang
and once again ruined the people chain
