Bipolar

BIPOLAR
Buoyant joyful spirits
but a garb, tormented
binary mind, prey to
betraying, grave  mood swings.
Brazeness doth  give way
brusquely to despondence;
blues to sadly,  hold sway.

You shed light on a very difficult disease to live with, both from the person who suffers from it to the loved ones who must deal with it. I can relate and you did well describing it. Congratulations on your win! : ) 7

Thank you, Connie for your complimentary words. I am an orthodontist so related to the medical world. Maybe that helped in portraying the condition.

Please do not bother about misspelling my name. It happens with all of us many a times when our computer/ smartphone insists on outsmarting us!!

Sushma, my tablet has a mind of its own. I spelled your name correctly in my first comment but the tablet changed it. I'm so sorry.
