Too many times
She cried alone
She always had to hide
Falling deep
Into the unknown
She barely stayed alive
She lost herself
A long time ago
But kept it all inside
Now it’s too late
It’s starting to show
Her broken soul that died

Lost
Lost in her mind
She can’t seem to find,
The answers.
Her soul
Is trapped in a hole
Too deep to know how to climb out.
She’s dying...
Just trying,
To find her way out.
She screamed to the trees, the birds, and the bees!
Trying to learn how to see again.
She feels lost...
So lost...
She’s tired of playing pretend.

Dear Dad
Dear Dad,
My heart is sad.
I found out the other day,
That you had passed away.
I wish I could give you one last hug.
I miss you and your love.
I feel lost knowing you aren’t around.
I miss your voice and the way that it sounds.
I didn’t get a chance to say goodbye.
Now you are in heaven, painting the sky.
I know one day we’ll meet again.
I’ll impatiently wait, until then.
For now all I can do, is write you this letter.
Please know that I’ll love you, forever and ever.
Dear Dad,
My heart is sad.
Dedicated to my amazing and talented Dad, Sam Del Russi. You are always in my heart. I love you Dad. Painting above was by him.

My Wonderland
I want to runaway
To a place
Full of Tulips and Daisies
Dragonflies and so many Roses
Where you feel
The Sun Rays
Hit your face, feeling its warmth.
With beautiful puffy white clouds
The kind you look up at
And dream about laying on.
The light warm breeze
Blowing through the trees
Hearing the sound the leaves make
When the wind blows through them
Just Right.
I want to runaway
To a place
Full of colorful trees and waterfalls
Hot springs, surrounded by giant Sunflowers
And through them
Is a stone path
Leading to the beach
With warm sand and Palm Trees
Sea Shells and the Ocean
Crystal clear waters
The sound of waves
Crashing down calmly onto the shore
Dolphins splashing around in the background.
And at night
I want to runaway
To a place
Where sparkling rocks and crystals
Light up the dark night sky
The moon so full
Illuminating the way
To a lake full of bright colorful fish, glowing.
The sound of wolves
Howling in the distance
Owls fully awake
Speaking to nature
I want to runaway
To a place
Where I am unchained
From this darkness
I am locked up in,
Escaping from this life.
I want to runaway
To a place
Where I am free...

Just Love
He tortured himself with the lies that filled his head.
For he could not lose her, so he tied her to the bed.
She was not to whisper, cry, or yell.
For he would make her life a living hell.
It just was not good enough.
So as he held her down,
He threaded her mouth shut,
So she could never make a sound.
No one would ever know,
How he tortured her mind.
No one would know,
How he forced her to confine.
For he loved her so much
That it hurts,
That’s what he said.
Claiming it is just love,
Then he strangled her...
to death.
