Jessica Jackson Biography

I'm Jes. A mother of a beautiful, eight year old daugther. Her name is Makayley. She is AMAZING! I am not married. I have never been married and I raise my daughter solely by myself. I work in the advertising/marketing industry and have done so for the past 9 years. I LOVE what I do and enjoy the traveling that comes along with it. I find the following words to be the best ways to describe me: very loving, confident, genuine, outgoing, outspoken, fun, honest, sincere, giving, goofy, focused, determined, professional, inpatient, meticulous and driven for success! I really enjoy genuine, upbeat people who have a lot of drive in their life and care about others. I'm surrounded by people like that in my personal and professional life and that is very important to me. I used to give back to my community and to good causes from time to time, but most recently I have found it to be a passion of mine. I have my strong spiritual beliefs and I don't just visit with the good Lord only when times are difficult or on Christmas and Easter...just the opposite because I do this everyday. I find myself constantly on the go. I'm always off trying to get everything marked off my 'things to do list'. The 'things to do list' is always something I carry in my purse and usually consists of things that have to be done for my daughter, for my job, for my dogs(Rexi and Sammy) , and for volunteering projects either in the community, at my church or at my daughter's school. I alway find enough time for pampering myself though. This hard-working girl deserves every second of it too.)

The Best Poem Of Jessica Jackson

Blind & Dangerous

First, words on a screen~
Voice on the phone~
Deameanor across a table~
Leading to a future so unknown.

Confronting the depth of my soul~
With passion in his eyes~
Taking it all in~
But approving what were lies.

I entered into a comfort zone~
Depending on his touches~
Yet feeling all alone.

His version of the truth~
Was a very sad seduction~
Appealing to the heart~
But a mind full of destruction.

Forgiving as I was~
Some say I was insecure~
Feeling what I thought was love~
I continued to endure.

Having hope from deep within~
And a mind dedicated to our future~
I planned a day of white~
And took another leap of torture.

Blind-sighted by the commotion~
And excitement our loved ones felt~
I continued to ignore the love~
That had now began to melt.

Committed to the surroundings~
I continued to press on~
Hoping for a miracle~
Yet feeling something was all wrong.

He finally proved those feelings true~
When I discovered another lie~
He deceived the two who loved him most~
And pushed us to the side.

Full of disappointment~
And a devastating broken heart~
I gathered my belongings~
And decided it was time to part.

Closed the door behind me~
Locked my heart up with the key~
Broke the news to my daughter~
That it would now just be her and me.

Things would be okay~
I whispered in her ear~
Don't you worry little one~
There is nothing left to fear.

I don't believe I meant~
A single word of what I said~
We were walking down a lonely path~
That I now led.

I was as terrified as anyone could be~
Not a clue of what the future held~
For my daughter or for me.

He took it all for granted~
He led us to believe~
We trusted his companionship~
And he made us feel relieved.

Relieved that there was hope for us~
A family with a dad~
A husband who would care for us~
And never make us sad.

He only made it worse on her~
When he built that relationship so strong~
Promises after promises that nothing would go wrong.

We trusted that he would make the changes he claimed he wanted
Leaving the past behind~
That he had always confronted.

One moment we had a family in our future~
But our hopes and dreams were shattered~
With nothing left to nurture.

Time went by slowly~
And as I was still very weak~
Lonely and depressed~
With a future that was bleak.

My mind only considered~
The happy memories~
My heart was too heavy~
As I fell to my knees.

I prayed to God~
For him to reappear~
And for him to rescue my emotions~
The Lord answered my request~
But once again I was fooled by his devotion.

Angry and bitter that I couldn't love him back~
He became desprite~
So he decided to attack.

I had witnessed his aggression~
Many, many times before~
But this time it was different~
This time it was more.

Terrified for my life~
Wondering what I was going to do~
He whispered in my ear~
But this time it wasn't, 'I love you'

Shocked by the aftermath~
I couldn't understand~
I tried to find the logic and reason with my man.

He wouldn't give me answers~
Only blamed it all on me~
Said for me to let it go~
For me to let it be.

I gave my family excuses~
As to why he was so mean~
I said it was all in the past~
And the good would one day again be seen.

A few weeks later~
My father passed away~
I let him leave this earth~
Seeing me that way.

This was the man who had never let me down~
Never told me lies~
And always picked me up off the ground.

His last words to me although were very few~
Were ones I longed to hear~
He whispered ….'I love you'.

It was at that very moment~
I began to understand~
Life didn't have to be so hard~
And I didn't need a man.

I could now move on~
I could now break free~
I could let him go~
And I could now just be me!
