Perplexed Poetess

Words for how I feel sometimes don't I have Sometimes feelings that just are my that feelings That my soul plague episodes emotional Which cannot words explain Phenomenon a strange and weird On Files stuff some X Me you and have a relationship bipolar I you like now but minutes I won't in five You me love but you love don't I Nothing fair there is an about exchange uneven Loved to be I want but I you hate that me love You love I want to can't but I just No sense makes it at all The head and heart in my confusion that swirls Creating together twists the venom bitterest Protection my own for I spit Myself defending genuine words from your So hard trying to be not that girl stupid Stupid I'm anyway for something rebuking so authentic Futile efforts are my

Before I comment, please tell me that you were just trying to paint a picture of the mind of a bipolar person. And if you are that person, I appologize. But it sounds more like dyslexia in your writing. I know some people who are bipolar. I can name some celebraties who are bipolar. No two cases are the same. This is really a hard write to critique because I don't know the reasoning behind it. If it's genuine, then my heart goes out to you. If it's playful, then shame on you. I can say no more.

Thank you for reading my poem. I would have been happy to elaborate on this poem had you not demanded me to do so as if I owe you an explanation. My creative choices are my creative choices. You don’t have to like them, you don’t have to agree with them, and you certainly don’t have to critique them.

I could say no more because I ran out of space. Please elaborate on this write if you would like us to know more.
