The last time I cried…
I saw my soon to be two-month-old cousin put underground
I never thought I’d end up in the same place so soon
Only a year has passed since my brother was in the same spot.
It’s killing me, it’s breaking me, but what can I do
Seeing my family slowly being torn apart by losing those we love
Who left us at such young ages
Their lives just coming to a start

POPS is a high school club that welcomes all those whose lives have been touched by prison. We offer a space where members are encouraged to write, talk and paint their truths. At POPS we thrive on seeing the world as it is while imagining it as it could be. We are creating hope by tackling shame and fear. We are building a community based on dignity and openness.
