Emotions and Beyond
()
About this ebook
Emotions and Beyond is based on a journey throughout the author's life, which is expressed through poetry and spoken words. It is a joining of the author's first book, Emotions, published in 2013 combined with her latest publication, Emotions and Beyond. This book aims to encourage and empower the reader to push past their challenges, setbacks, and stagnancy. It seeks to paint a picture of the emotional turmoil encountered at an early age that has the ability to trap individuals in a particular state of existence for years to follow. The negative impact and struggle in the author's personal life and the mediocre relationship with God resulted in a cycle of unrest and wrong decisions. This brought the author to a place of spiritual slumber and hardship, which inspired the releasing of the author's thoughts to the general public in the hope that change will begin to take place in individuals' lives. The cycle of emotional bondage and insecurity was broken upon the author's return to the presence of God with the utmost elevation to an internal place of peace; this is where growth in all areas of the author's life began to manifest.

Acknowledgment
I first acknowledge the Lord Jesus Christ who has touched my heart from a very young age and has comforted and loved me throughout my journey which has allowed me to be inspired to write in a poetic way to help the reader to see that they are not alone and that there is a light at the end of the tunnel.
Thank you to my parents Wilfred and Dorine Lindsay for loving me unconditionally and to my wonderful husband Leonard Dujon who is my biggest fan standing with me and encouraging me all the way; and of course to my best friend and Pastor Jennifer Clarke-Singh of whom I have grown up with since the age of ten who has always supported and loved me unconditionally and has a deeper understanding behind some of the poetic writing shared. Also, to the children of my womb, Craig, Ayesia, Taleeba and Shekinah (Bedward) who has been with me throughout my journey and has continued to love me with all my flaws.
A big shout out for all those that has helped me to produce the images that I desired within the book; a big thank you goes out to the youth department from New Birth Tabernacle as well as Galan Ward and my son Colton Dujon who was patient enough to work with me on the images desired.
And last but not least to all those who read my first book ‘Emotions’ published in 2013 and patiently waited for the next publication to manifest, well hear it is. For those who did not have the opportunity to read my first book, not to worry because you have two books rolled into one.
Be blessed as you read.
Thank You

Emotions are like a sea
Which can take you by surprise
Its roots are embedded deeply
Taking control of lives
It traps your mind and controls your thoughts
And will change the environment you are in
It takes away clarity; it brings you no sight
No vision, no hope, no strategy to cope
No peace, no joy because it tries to destroy
The real you that you were and now to be no more
You’re controlled by the state of the emotion
