Don't mistake me for
an insomniac; these are
the symptoms of love!

    Aww wow Meme, a beautiful little poem representing those thoughts of being in love, and how you cannot sleep for thinking of them and the love between you.

    It shows that you are not with this person, and long to be with them.

    This is the total opposite of someone who has insomnia, their thoughts tend to be all bad, stressful, anxious etc. Yet here, without you even wording it, there is a hint in your tone and wording that just shows this writer is at total peace with this state of mind, and with staying awake in this zone.

    Nice to read your work again xx

    Yes, it does end too soon. Makes a statement without explanation, which is only brutal justice to the reader.

    Wow - this is simply great! I took a look at the title and was preparing for some huge elaboration, but was blown away instead at how much true meaning can be portrayed in only those three little lines! Very relatable and very well done! :)

    I love this, dear. It's very true, love turns us into insomniacs sometimes because as corny as it sounds, our reality is better than our dreams! lol

    Edit: Also BOO to the person who downvoted this. :/
