Feeling the rain,
The sudden change in climate;
Floating I am in your love
Just like a lotus in water..
Oh girl! You are different!

You are in my every chapter hereafter;
Something attracted me :
The mystery behind your smile
Is like a sweet drug..
Oh girl! You are so beautiful!!

Wonder who you are!
You took my sleep away,
Made me long for you
When I cross you , the air is different..
My heart? Are you in love?
Oh girl! You are so irresistible!!

Time stops when you are around,
My life you are is what I felt
At this moment;
The refusal is unbearable..
Oh girl! Yes, I am in love with you!!

- Sukeerti Nandihal

I am the existence, I am its repulsion,
I am the wife, I am the husband,
I am a preacher , I am a student,
I become the poem and the poet too..
Every bond the world defies is mine,
Even the life of the unheard is mine,
The oceans of worldly ties are mine,
Even the life of celibacy and renunciation is mine..

Life is a journey with success and failures,
Walking alone , realisation strikes hard :
Soul is eternal, my sustenance isn't,
Memories left behind is what matters..
Every bond the world defies is mine,
Even the life of the unheard is mine,
The oceans of worldly ties are mine,
Even the life of celibacy and renunciation is mine..


Innovations, theories, words, songs,
Dreams,Colours, inspirations;
The analogy continues
As the generations augment..
Every bond the world defies is mine,
Even the life of the unheard is mine,
The oceans of worldly ties are mine,
Even the life of celibacy and renunciation is mine..

I become the soothing essence to the intense fire,
Being the eye to sky and light to the eye,
I am the good, I am the bad,
I am the lone, I am the whole,
My heart being the house
Runs the nature's song..
Every bond the world defies is mine,
Even the life of the unheard is mine,
The oceans of worldly ties are mine,
Even the life of celibacy and renunciation is mine..!

Another word for intuitively understand?

I'm trying to think of a single verb that means "to intuitively understand", such as "he ___-ed everything she was thinking."

Apprehension is a suitable word

Is this the end? He thought
Compared to her, the others were naught.
His remembered her smile
A smile, which was like an emerald isle.

For years, he had loved her
But she had been a silent saboteur
She always made him feel like he belonged
But he knew he was being wronged

And just when she couldnt compromise,
She cut off all ties.
In the water, she left him
Not caring if he knew how to swim.

He tried to reason
Did not believe it was treason
He coudnt believe she was done
But to him, she will always be the one.

-Amith

In 1674, Boileau wrote a poem about the art of poetry. I found some of its verses to be quite helpful and I hope it can help you too.

Here is a roughly translated excerpt (sorry for my English):
Before you write, learn to think. [...]
What is well thought is well said,
And the words to say it come easily. [...]
Hasten slowly, and without losing heart,
Keep working on your writing:
Polish it constantly and polish it again ;
Sometimes add, and often erase. [...]

I published Key points for free writing on Medium.

Just read The Five Most Important Elements of Poetry on Medium.

I have been battling my depression for the past two years and only now i am in a better position. I wrote a poem when i have been at lowest point in my life i like to share that poem here.

I had no reason to live, to survive and take upon all my pain
when i am dying, let me atleast write a suicide like ever again.
Being the youngest in family and a daughter second in line,
I have been used to all good things and my life was just fine,
till a day came where i started wanting my friends over my family,
things started spiralling down turning my life into tragedy.
I am yet to find me a love thats so strong,
to pull me away from this wrong path and to advise me its wrong.
But here I am, alone i stand,
trembling with nerves and doubt before death's hand.
And while I was writing this suicide note a thought passed by.
I may have done many things wrong but do I deserve to die?
Death may have dulled the pain but its a cowards way out,
hence now I am considering my decision to die with a hint of doubt
Slowly I decide to move away from my death and decide to take control of my life
as still there are so many pages yet to be turned , in the book that's-my life.
