Another magnificent offering from you. A bi-polar personality doesn't just take the victim on a roller coaster ride, but all that tries to love her or him.

I rather like this poem. It's well-written and has a solid theme. However, I have a few notes of constructive criticism. I like the rhyme scheme, however a few of the rhymes are slanted (not exact rhymes): wildly and thing, thoughts and through. Normally that'd be ok, but since the rest of the poem follows a set pattern, those feel out of place. As another note, since the rhyme scheme is as such, I would combine the stanzas of two into stanzas of four. I feel like that would be more organized, but that's totally up to you. Overall, good piece though!

    I thank you so much for your review and comments. I am open to criticism and appreciate comments that I can gain some insight into how I can improve my entry. If you could kindly point out which stanzas you are referring to, I would be happy to consider changing them. Thanks again and good luck in all your writings on FanStory.

    Anytime! And yes, what I mean by combining stanzas into four would be say to take the first two, middle two, and last two, and bring them together. Now you have three stanzas instead of six. Does that make sense? And haha thanks, I'm new here myself.

A good effort at trying to poetically describe a condition that is so complicated. You've captured the frustration of confused emotions and lack of understanding.

This is a terrible disease to be stricken with as my one daughter-in-law is classified as such and she is in and out of hospitals always trying to find herself and the best medications that will show a good match for her emotions.
A good simile noted was: My thoughts keep racing wildly
Like a film runs off a reel

Your well penned poem reveals the confusion and turmoil people with bi-polar experience. Excellent word choice and couplets make your poem flow for this reviewer.

A very good poem with rhyming couplets. Bi polar has got the extremes of emotions, so in many cases need the medication to balance them.

Well done, good luck in the contest.

I have trouble understanding bi-polar people but I've never had anyone really close to me that is that way. I wish your family memeber well and good luck in the contest.

I think it is appropriate that this was done with a red background and left simple. It somehow works with this particular subject matter. I thought it was well written and interesting. It speaks an important, loving message for someone who may have a problem of this nature. I enjoyed reading it
