Don't force yourself,
Life and rivers are better,
When they go with the flow.
RVani Kalyani Nov 2024
It feels weird,
I try to collect happiness,
In minutes and keep a checklist,
So I do things that bring me joy.
I don’t feel myself,
When that checklist’s empty,
Am I turning more,
Into a human or robot,
When will things be fine,
When would things go back,
Into how they were.
RVani Kalyani May 2020
If nothing goes right,
Love yourself a bit more and then everything will be alright!
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.

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
RVani Kalyani Nov 2020
You are really blessed,
When you put your Spotify playlist on shuffle and it plays all your favourite songs!!!

I'm obsessed too,
I don't know what to do.
Can't get hold of the time that's running,
Tick-tock,Tick-tock it keeps going.
I feel suffocated, I lose my breath,
Lub-dub,lub-dub can hear in my ears.
All the energy in my legs drain,
Into that invisible river of procrastination,
And I find myself drowned in it.
How do I get out of it?
I raise my hand only to catch my lost self in the cosmos,
I stretch my arm into thin air, and I did get out,
Catching the soft hand of wrinkles,
It was my Dad!  
I woke up from my bed.
RVani Kalyani Mar 2023
I can see the moon
While I sleep,
That makes me happy.
This is all what I dreamt of.
School story books had these,
Pictures with a boy sleeping beside,
The window with the moon view,
And that's what I'd love too.
And I'm happy that I do too,
Have the same view and the window too.
Do you too?
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.
RVani Kalyani Dec 2020
Nothing's going in my way,
It is like this everyday.
I feel like giving up all the time,
Have no other colors just lime.
All my dreams turn their backs on me,
I try to keep up I run behind for glee.
I look up for the shining stars,
But what I see are all blurred marks.
So I close my eyes to get lost in thoughts,
To end today and the night of fraughts.
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.
RVani Kalyani Sep 2023
My hand bleeds to paint,
Splitter spatter here and there, Everywhere.
Wanting the warmth of embrace,
By it's friends,
Brushes of goat hair.
Papers, paints and palette,
All what it would want to hold.
Has so many wishes,
More than "The Hand", so bold.
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.

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.
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.
RVani Kalyani Mar 2024
This life that I'm living,
This is not mine.
This isn't me.
Who am I slowly turning into.
A lie?
Or an adjustment?
Is this me?
The Realme?
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!
RVani Kalyani Mar 2023
I miss home now,
I always try to bring a part of it,
In the bedsheets that smell like home,
In the fragrance of clothes by detergent in home.
And the home made food by mother.
Fruits packed by father,
And the snacks by brother,
But it all fades away in days.
I search for ways to find home in me,
And I again travel to bring a part of it,
The next time I go home.
And it keeps to go on.
RVani Kalyani Sep 2019
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.

Walk in their shoes,
They say,
It'd be easy we guess.
But that's not how it is.
You'll only know if you do,
Walk in their shoe.
I wore my friend sangi's chappal today and all I could think was this. Cause it was hard to walk in those. They were quite slippery so all the time I kept wondering how did sangi walk in these. Cause we'll never know until we walk in their shoes.
RVani Kalyani Apr 2024
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.
RVani Kalyani Mar 2023
So i counted,
And i slipped for just 3 times.
The longer we practice,
The harder the task is,
We will find a way to live,
With the things that are meant to be.
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.
RVani Kalyani Aug 2020
It's like knowing what brightness is,
When you've lived half of your life in darkness.
It is when you have finally accepted who you are,
It is when you keep valuing yourself,
It is when your soul starts grows with you.
And it is when énouement doesn't hit you anymore.

Self-love can change people too,
You will no longer be that kid who's traumatized by the past,
You will be loving each and every inch of your skin,
You will live your life like never before.
Start loving yourself in every way possible,
You will surely see an eternal rainbow in your life.
Start loving yourself the way you are and you will find the world change around you. You will find the things and adore those things you never know existed.
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!
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.
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.
RVani Kalyani May 2023
She tried getting up from the beach,
That she's drowned in deep.
She couldn't get herself up.
Her soul got vanished into the sea.
She could move though,
But it wasn't her.
She could talk though,
But it was silence.
She was a puppet,
Had her feelings, thoughts buried in,
Her words faded within,
Her self melted into air thin.
So she went into the waters again-beach.

The sky is so dark and sad,
I wonder why.
Is it because of Rapunzel,
Who's stuck to study?
In that lonely tower,
She's all alone,
With heaps of books,
And bundles of pens.
What will she learn,
When she's forced to read?
She dreams of running away,
Knowing the world,
Sleeping on that green grass,
Flowing like that free river.
She keeps dreaming,
Of the world behind the walls.
She keeps wanting to run,
Run to happiness,
Run to the days she feels loved,
Run to the life she wants to live.
But When will she?
When she's stuck just to study?
RVani Kalyani Jan 2024
Did it ever fall down,
The whole sky all of a sudden.
Did you ever feel like it did thou?
Does it feel heavy on your head too?
Or does it make your mind blank,
Or is it like a fog filled tank?
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.
RVani Kalyani Dec 2022
Year became like some months,
Months became weeks
And weeks became days,
Days pass by like minutes.
Everything is going on in 2x speed.
But i haven't changed the settings.
It's like a snake game,
As snake eats my time it gets big,
And I'm scared I'll lose out of time.
Why is life so busy and it keeps getting busier day by day.
Say something, Hey!!!
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....
Sun
RVani Kalyani Jan 2023
Sun
Rays of hope,
Rays of sunshine,
Burn me a little,
So, I'll be back fine.
Devour me a little,
So, I won't myself.
