Since her father Rosario passed away at the age of 66 – it was September 5 – Emma has not stopped for a moment. She attended Vanity Fair Stories giving a performance of rare intelligence and sympathy; you presented the documentary for Prime Video Wrong Leo ascendant, and has often been a guest at the concerts of beloved colleagues such as Elisa and in programs that occupy a special place for her such as Friends. All this, however, has not diminished even for a second the pain for the death of the father from whom he was inseparable. and who, now that he’s gone, misses her so much that she shares a long letter dedicated to him on Instagram. «Before going on stage and immediately after, as soon as I got off the stage, I phoned you. “Chicca mia, daddy’s love, how did it go? Everything is fine?”. Now I call you, but you don’t answer me”writes Emma 24 hours after Elisa’s concert in which she attended.
«I go up on that stage anyway, but it’s not the same anymore. Nothing is as before without you. I drag myself through things, my legs are tired like my soul, everything is shaking. Even the voice trembles, because I want to scream your name that goes down the throat along with the tears. You were my anchor and my safe haven. The right measure of all things. You were just dad and I was his dad’s daughter. How hard it is to be me without you. What a struggle to start over without the captain. The ship is now only in my hands. But I remember perfectly the compass rose you had tattooed on your arm. I know where north points. And if the engine doesn’t start, I have strong arms to row”, writes Emma directly addressing her father, Rosario Marrone, while her followers can do nothing but remain on the sidelines and absorb the pain of a daughter who feels she has lost a piece of himself now that his father is gone.
«We were two of two, as in the novel by Andrea De Carlo. Now I don’t know what the fuck I am, dad. The truth is this. I sing by instinct. To survive. I sing only for you. Because now I feel nothing. Nothing, dad. I only feel you», the closing of this moving letter written by Emma, perhaps a way to feel a moment lighter because we know how much writing can help, even if only minimally, to isolate the part of us that hurts so much to visualize it in its entirety. The mourning process is very long, often it never really ends, and we sincerely hope that Emma knows she is not alone, as her fans have transmitted to her in these hours.
