Cammy Jo Jackson Poem
Roses are red, violets are blue,
I am in heaven still waiting for you.
There are people up here with lot of love,
and things that you will see, such as flowers and doves.
Sooner or later you will see,
because you will be up here with me.
All the people in the past,
are in heaven at last.
You already know that sooner or later you will die
and go to heaven in the sky.
I've told you once, and I'm telling you again,
that you were always my best friend.

Cammy Jo Jackson Poem
Someone I can depend on,
that is there.
Someone I can talk to,
that cares.
Someone I can go to,
that will ask.
Someone I can joke with,
that laughs.
Someone I can follow,
that will lead.
Someone I can stick with,
that will never leave.
Someone I can listen to,
that is smiling.
Someone I can help,
that is crying.
Someone I can stand up for,
that is hurt.
Someone I can save,
that is burnt.
Someone I can trust,
that is understanding.
Someone I can lean on,
that is still standing.
Someone I can spend time with,
that loves me.
Someone I can fight with,
that hugs me.
Someone I can remember,
that is dead.
Someone I can thank,
that is way above my head.

Cammy Jo Jackson Poem
Hard to believe; difficult to grasp.
Why she never cared, why I never asked.
I know she loved me deep down inside,
but from what I've learned, she never really tried.
So listen very closely to what I have to say,
because it's something in my life that will never fade away.
As a little girl, my momma did drugs,
she hardly ever gave me kisses and hugs.
She would always get drunk like I was not even there,
start fighting and punching with guys she brought home, while I sat there and stared.
She never even knew the men and they were not even considered a friend,
but by morning he would be gone and she would bring another one in.
Before school without any help,
I would pick out my clothes and get dressed all by myself.
When I got to class, my teacher would fix my hair for me,
and she would make it look as pretty as can be.
If I had any homework and there was an answer I could not find,
I would not even bother asking her because she never had time.
I never had any friends that play with me outside,
instead they would just laugh at me as I walked on by.
Even though she gave up and never gave it a chance,
she never encouraged me not to repeat the mistakes she made and take another glance.
So if you were listening to what I just said,
no matter what happens, never give up and always stay ahead.
