What If

What if the world was a maze

And you were alone

What if you were stranded somewhere

In a place unknown

What if there were no boundaries

And religion didn't exist

Would there still be war

Or this journey would have been a peaceful tryst?

What if there was no segregation

And the rich and poor were alike

The immense joyhood and celebrations

Would have lightened faces worldwide

What if the sky was green

And the leaves turned blue

What if hate could change to love

And things became too good to be true

What if time could stop

As and when required

What if we could pause and bring back

People and memories that we desire

What if life didn't exist

And all this is just a dream

Will you rather wake up

Or relive all that you have seen?

I get this thought and then think of it all

What if there is a whole new world on the other side of the wall

I then sit back and think about life's maddening race

What if I leave everything aside and enjoy it at my own pace.
