Is it a quest?
RVani Kalyani May 2019
I can't decide,don't know what to do,
I look around but I find no clue.
Is it some other quest of life too?
I can't decide,I can't even move...
Longing for answers to all of the questions related to life and future...

Lion Queen
RVani Kalyani Aug 2019
You've found me in my den,
Too bad I can't harm my guests,
Come meet me at the seashore,
I'll show you the lion you didn't see.
It's about a person who wants to show their badass self but can't because of the circumstances around them. Here you refers to another person who thinks less of you. It's about awakening a lion in ourselves

Like a Rain Drop
RVani Kalyani Aug 2019
I wish I was a rain drop,
There's never a same stop.
I would always be together,
There will always be a space to gather.

Hailstones and Snowflakes
RVani Kalyani Aug 2019
Up this hill I have reached,
All these stairs that I have climbed.
I touch the clouds above me,
Feel the stars shining upon me.
But will I feel the thunderstorms too,
Or will I mix in tornado in the sky of blue.
I keep thinking and overthinking,
Snowflakes and hailstones are what describe living!
A short description of life

I miss U
RVani Kalyani Nov 2019
I miss my place,
I miss my people.
Want to hug them so tight,
Before the tears reach my cheeks.
Want to sleep on her lap,
Cry on his shoulder,
And  annoy him,
My mom,my dad, and my bro,
I'm missing you and love you so.
When a homebody lives in a hostel and misses her people

Poems need your listening,
Though I'll do the reading,
And though it has the rhyming.
You need to feel the feeling,
Hope my poem will be heart touching,
And I hope it will leave u smiling.

Sleep
RVani Kalyani Sep 2019
I wish I could just sleep like that too,
Feel so dizzy, I just can't move.
This silence makes me want to sleep,
No little noise, not even a beep.
This cold breeze helps me more,
It would be a nice nap, I'm sure!
How could I sleep without getting caught?
Have heard no lessons that teachers have taught.
Are there waking pills? I wonder,
This dizziness doesn't go until there's a thunder.

Journey
RVani Kalyani Aug 2019
Headphones plugged,
My thoughts are rugged.
Humming the song lyrics,
I see the nature's classics.
My consciousness fades away,
In the direction of wind's way.

Something
RVani Kalyani Jul 2019
Everytime I see that bird fly,
I just want to go and catch up that sky.
Every morning I find a flower blossom,
I get  a reason to be awesome.
But the wind that flows through me,
Makes me feel like I need to be like thee.
The stars that shine all the day along,
Do I need to be them until I get what I long?
But tonight and today it's just me who I am
And will stay the same despite those feelings I swam....

To find my way.

To let myself stay.

Mornings
RVani Kalyani Nov 2019
I see bright colors today,
Is it just me,What do you say?
I feel the sun rays touching my soul,
While the sun smiles so bright like gold.
It has been ages since I had a morning like this,
I have always wished for something just like this.

You left the world
RVani Kalyani Oct 2019
It pains to watch you fall,
From that sky of stars.
It hurts to enter the hall,
You left us with your scars.
You've been obsessed with your thoughts,
To the extend that you vanished into them.
It must've been hard to let it all consume you,
It must've been worse hiding all the pain with that smile.
And I despise myself for not being there when you needed someone,
I hate myself for not having your back in your hard times,
I regret all those times when I couldn't understand your struggle behind that fake smile.
I'm sorry dear friend,
I just want to make some amends.

The Crossroads
RVani Kalyani Mar 2019
I keep on walking the road,
Feeling the wind so cold.
Have all my assets of life packed,
Still can't figure out what I lacked.
Going on,I just follow the way,
I'm not sure when I'll make hay.
Suddenly,I find the crossroads,
Me in the centre,beneath the clouds.
I can't decide,I just look up,
Want the Lord to ask me what's up?
In the situation of Robert Frost's,
Where do I go?Wish I had the hearts.
Should I go straight? No,left or right?
I'm confused,I can see no light,
Will time solve this or my mind?
Will both my way and life rhyme?
Confused to choose among 3 things,3roads,3destinations.
An inspiration from Robert Frost's "Road not taken".
Yet still confused....

Seasons
RVani Kalyani Sep 2020
I'm bored,
Bored of waiting for that warm sunshine in monsoon.
I'm bored,
Bored of craving for rains in hot summer.
I'm bored,
Bored of waiting for maple leaves in the cold winter.
I'm bored,
Bored of  craving to wear sweaters in autumn.
I'm bored,
Bored of waiting for green beginnings in yellow summer evenings.
I'm bored,
Bored of craving for icecreams while in spring.

Not a pawn
RVani Kalyani Jun 2019
Pardon my actions if they are wrong,
Atleast inform me if it gets too long,
To see up the sky and follow the dawn,
Remember this thing- I'm not a pawn.

She
RVani Kalyani Aug 2020
She
She loves red,
She smells blood!
Knives are her favorite,
But not just in a plight.
She walks in black,
She cuts no slack.
She is for Vendetta not just V,
She's a real badass you see!
"Vigorous, tough"- her aura speaks,
She's that goddess everyone seeks.
She burns brighter than the sun,
If her eyes turn red-you gotta run.
Her smile makes all the flowers bloom,
Even when it's a dark night and gloom.
Taming snakes is her hobby,
You could find cobras in her lobby.
You should see her in a crown,
Doesn't need anyone, she's on her own.
You could find a lioness in a den,
But not her, she's one in ten.
Stalwart or Virago can call her any,
Nah! You can't win her, honey.
She's the queen in her kingdom that she built,
Try laying a finger, she knows how to tilt.
She version 2
The most badass poem describing the badass woman.

FYI women can be badass too. If you haven't met any woman who's a badass it means two things-
Woman around you don't want to show their badass self to you
Or
Time hasn't come or maybe you weren't there to witness their badass self.

Night thoughts
RVani Kalyani Nov 2019
Planes fly over my head,
Whooshing sound I hear,
I look up to the sky of stars,
Find myself lost in my mind wars.
I picture myself in the moon,
With my stained heart so gloom.
And then I fade away into the dark,
Fly away with the wind and the lark.

Frozen Thoughts
RVani Kalyani Feb 2020
Are some things meant to be broken,
So that we shouldn't have them anymore...?
Are some things meant to be lost,
So that we won't have to find them
anymore...?
Are some things meant to be forgotten,
So that we don't have to remember
anymore...?

World of Wicked
RVani Kalyani Sep 2019
Don't know what to do,I'm left confused.
Is there anything in this world that's less abused?
Can't pretend to know what I don't,
Can't answer world's questions,I just won't.
Corrupted,polluted and wicked world is all what I find,
You are true? Well,u are gonna get down to the sand.
World is just a wicked place with wicked people.

How will that be?
RVani Kalyani Jun 2019
It keeps giving me the chills,
Is it a battle of uphills?
How can I guess the outcome,
When I'm still not clear of what I'll become,
Can I make the perfect choice?
And will I be able to rejoice?
Still in confusion. The unclearness of goals and the ways up ahead of me.

Colourless or Colourful?
RVani Kalyani Jul 2019
Crystal clear sky of Green,
And that red coloured stream.
If the trees turn to blue too,
Will that seem beautiful to you?
What's wrong with this happening?
I've fed up with u people changing.
Blinded by progression u don't see the crisis,
I still wait for the day u admit that Nature is the basis.
A plea made by the nature's messenger/ nature's part to find nature's lost self.
We people have become so worse that we don't feel gratitude for nature anymore.
And we are not humans anymore either. In a par of civilisation,we are only focusing about the things that profit us while ignoring the nature's saddest cries.

Broken hearts
RVani Kalyani Oct 2019
These unusual rain drops,
And thy warm tear drops.
I feel them both on my skin,
And that the heart is feelings bin.
Unworthy when hidden,
Betrayed when opened...

Wishes under the Night Sky
RVani Kalyani Jun 2019
Wish I could just hop on a cloud,
And ride it to the places I loved.
Wish I could pluck all the stars,
And become one of the Tsars,
Wonder what's daydreaming called in the night,
Is there anything more beautiful than moonlight?

RVani Kalyani Sep 2022
Why do u think it's raining,
It's Ma ganga's calling,
She's waiting for his returning,
And reminding us,
That he's gonna be leaving,
And also that he'll be coming,
The next year when it will be raining.

And have a Good night my friend.

Hesitant season
RVani Kalyani Aug 2021
I call it the Hesitant Season!
Leaves don't move until they have wind's word,
And that makes the air awkward around.
Stars don't shine till they clouds move,
And that makes them lose their glow.
Yet we all walk around and around,
Noticing less of the nature's frown.

He's my sun!
RVani Kalyani Feb 2022
He blooms roses for me,
Grows cocoa beans for toffee...
He keeps his promise forever!
He hugs me in the winter like a teddy!
He kisses me so the pics come out so well!
He gives me a reason to live!
He makes me shine like a diamond!

Guitar
RVani Kalyani May 2020
You've listened to the song I never sung,
You've heard the thoughts I never let out.
You've been the only audience of my all experiments,
You've been the only one when everyone left.
You made me hold you when things were tough,
You made me less lonely having you by my side.
They say a red string connects people,
But what connects us are your 6 steel strings!
Your sound gives me the words to speak,
Your music gives me the worth to breathe!

Dandelion
RVani Kalyani Mar 2022
Nights, Libraries and Exam halls,
White sheets, New books and Sleep.
She loves these all in heap.
Lonely nights console her,
Bundles of books save her,
Paints and rain are what make her,
She is a dandelion and it is her!

Seung-wan in me
RVani Kalyani Apr 2022
I find no interest in life,
Except if it is for mother nature.
Excitement is dead for years,
I see point in absolutely nothing.
Is it because life's played me well,
Or have I been in its play for too long?
Humanity is not of my interest,
And I have too much to say, always!

And I forget to feel.

And i let go but overthink.
In the midst of these all,
I forget myself.

Artists
RVani Kalyani Jul 15
I wondered,
How could the great Artists and Writers,
Give in to depression.
Had they not feel their art within,
Or had their art not heal them in?
If only had they blend with the strokes,
Fused themselves with the Prose.
Would they have been here?
Why would they disappear?
I got my answer for it all,
When this poem’s end called.

Brother
RVani Kalyani Feb 2020
You are the only guiding star I have.
The best competitive soulmate I ever have.
Annoying you is what I love to do,
But whatever I do,you don't even move.
When you made me do all the chores mom asked you to,
I figured out that you lacked sense of Justice too.
Those moments when we fought for TV,
And those wonderful times
When you got caught for something I did.
Our maths was poor when it came to sharing food,
Not to mention the case of chocolates though.
I made faces to irritate you,
But I get annoyed with that poker face you do.
You know me way too well,
My favorite icecream flavor I don't tell.
You are the Tanjiro of my life,
Who carries me and my burdens of my life.
You are the Finneas of my music,
Who sets everything right and less chaotic.
You are my Tom while I'm your Jerry
How can our duo be less dramatic.

My wish
RVani Kalyani Mar 2023
I feel sad,
I don't feel good.
Why is life so bad,
Didn't think it would,
Stab right into the heart,
But it is it's art.
I just wish,
My friends get all they need,
Wish, deserve and want,
And I'd want to watch them rant,
But not be silent like an ant.

Delicate
RVani Kalyani Aug 29
My heart pains,
When the fruits rot,
My dear oranges that i love,
Lose their color,
Become so bland,
They look dead,
I feel sorry,
I could devour them,
When they were happy,
And now they're gone,
I just have to bid bye,
Forever and ever,
Their smell that I love,
Fades away,
The perishable scent,
I don't like it.
I only wish that I had eaten,
When their life gave me a chance.
I should've eaten.
They are delicate,
I shouldn't do this again.
Remainder to eat fruits before they rot, I really feel so guilty for not eating them, I miss them. My dear oranges.
I love you guys

Monday night
RVani Kalyani Dec 2021
Did I miss my childhood,
Or do i miss my joy?
I feel so like wood,
Stationary and no feel.
Did I forget where I stood,
Or do I keep running away?
I feel so bored,
Like no purpose and no goal.

ఆ అందమైన చందమామ
నేడు అమావాస్య చంద్రం అయ్యిందా?
మగాళ్ళలో మానవత్వం చచ్చి,
మరణ మృదంగం మోగిస్తుందా,
ఆటవిక సమాజపు అరాచకం ఎన్నాళ్ళు,
అభద్రత భావం తో బ్రతికేది ఇంకెన్నాళ్ళు?
అర్థ రాత్రి ఆడబిడ్డ ఆరుబయట నడిచేనా?
బాపూజీ కన్న కల సాకారం అయ్యేనా?

She
RVani Kalyani Feb 2020
She
She was given a freedom like dove,
Little did she know that it's wings were broken.
She was trapped in that dark cage,
Made of stereotypes that society created.
She thinks twice before she does anything
Cause she's tired of thinking what people might think.
She is assured that she is respected,
Why do people use her relations for obscenity?
She can't go out without an escort,
Then will she ever cross the country of hers
To make her parents and her nation proud?
She's always a slave for people's demand on her beauty,
She's always the one who gets judged about her personality.
She's always the one who suffers from our nation's disability.
She bleeds in pain and bears all the risks,
But she can't laugh out whenever she wants.
She and her life are all a burden,
Cause she ain't  the one who wears a turban.
People never change,these remain the same,
She is the one who gets the blame.
No matter how tough her is,
She is and will always be that fierce lioness.

It's like seasons,
Some months of joy,
It was good while it lasted.
But the season has to change,
For another to come.
And it will change,
We'll find another joy.
The cycle of life,
It keeps on changing.
The memories and time,
That's all what's left behind.

Rest?
RVani Kalyani Apr 24
I plan to sleep early today
Not sure if I'll be okay.
Haunted by the things I ought to do,
Eyes need rest with the things I do.
But I have miles to go before I sleep,
Lots of commitments that I have to keep.
To myself and my future self,
So we both can be at the same pace.

Oh Pigeon!
RVani Kalyani Jun 2022
She barged in right here,
Her red eyes tremble in fear.
Why enter when no one's near,
And make a mess of all what's dear?
Only to show off her necklace of pink-green,
The long white and grey coat, red boots so clean,
"Argh! There is she is! The ***** pigeon!"they shout,
She gives a mischievous smile, gets herself out!

That Year

I see blinking lights today,
And my conscience fades away.
The autumn leaves fall upon me,
While my spring's smile smiles at thee.
My summer thoughts that I left aside, Summon me,My snowflake tears slide,
I see those sparkling night stars,
As the night ends, This year ends...
