Twisted logic


What if I did not hesitate
What if you didnt tangentiate
What if we didnt play the games
What if you didnt call me names
What if the questions were different
What if the answers were the same
What if some things done today
on hindsight, would seem so lame
What if you read and interpret
What if tomorrow, I do regret
What if IF comes to pass....
What if...

John,
Because complicated people like us like to twist everything :)

Brat,
Well I guess they dont matter. I'm wondering what if they did...


Nevermind,
Oh dont worry, nothing life-stopping there. Just a thought :)

Love the pic,
love the twisted logic,
Love this post,
But what I love most,
Is not "what wud have been",
But the consecutive rhyming scheme.

The "what if's" are what makes us human, second guessing is second nature to us....

What if's are the best things ever!!! You can just keep on going...and going...and going...until of course, it just gets confusing >_<

On my blog, good to have you back.
Not only did you read, this time,
You even commented here, in rhyme.

And is so much fun... to let imagination roll :)

MC,
Or disillusional. Sigh.

Karuna,
Yes, they never do come to pass.

San,

I am guessing they do matter and thankfully, that is what makes us much more humane, than many.

Appu,
I have started believing that things happen because they were meant to happen that way. Of course it haunts us sometimes, but we have to live with it.
And no worries, feel free to pour out here. We dont mind, do we :)

Bright Red,
Yup, if only :)

Brat,
Yes they matter. Yes they affect our life. But then life moves on... rather quickly. No?

LH,
Another fan, we have! All hail, SATC :D

Totti,
Yesyesyes, that one time wonly. All your fault wonly :p

I absolutely LOVE this photo. It looks like what I feel on the inside.

I love your background music. Good selection of songs. Though I haven't heard them before, they sound strangely familiar.

Pranay,
A penny for your thoughts?

Urbanpro,
And very confusing too. Sigh.

Anonymous,
Save your judgement, my dear.

Brat,
Thanks :)

Anonymous,
I hope the knots will get sorted out...
And this song is from the movie 'Masoom'. Never heard it?

Thanks. But sometimes once the twists take shape, its not always possible to untangle them. They become part of you, and they define you. Like the tree. Could you imagine this tree any other way?

Seen the movie many times, but never heard the song for some reason.

Bali is expensive, though. I'm hoping to go to Angkor sometime soon...

Awesome lines...hold more meaning that what they initially suggest.
Nicely written.
And nice pic too.
The importance of keeping ur sanity in tough times is underestimated.
Keep the penny honey..

casa : that is true..its possibly its only because we see only waht we want to see really!

Blogger Casablanca said...

Sunrise,
Go right ahead, in that case :)

Pranay,
Now see, that was much better. It was worth the offer of a penny :)

Ligne,
Yes but not everything we want to see actually transforms to reality. That is sad :(
