    Hey Azzza, my man..a new poem and so soon!. Let me break it down for you:

    Maybe,
    the world revolves around
    so many maybes,
    why must it all be maybe?

    Would there be a maybe
    if things are how
    we want them to be?

    ^^^

    A lot of people are very unhappy with their lives. Once they have settled down and reached their personal "limits"dissapointment and resentment often sets in, they start to have this "is this really all there is? " feeling.
    That is why so many middle aged people get divorced, or start a brand new carreer.

    Maybe, maybes revolve around regrets;
    past decisions that we have made
    wishing us to reverse
    the hands of time, anti-clockwise.

    ^^
    Indeed maybes revolve around regrets, you have a very sharp view on how things work. If we were happy with our lives, we would never second guess ourselves.

    As the clock ticks,
    we're seconds older;
    but are we really much more wiser?

    ^^
    Big no-no, ha ha ha ( I am old enough to know!)

    Do we really scrutinized
    our actions?
    Accepting the consequences
    that will ripple the
    layers of our future?

    ^^
    Did instead of do

    And no, most people do not accept responsibility for anything, but assume the role of victim, which will ultimately destroy their personality.

    What if we had turned left
    instead of right?
    Would we still be taking
    the same path that
    brought us here today?

    ^^
    "Someting"makes us turn a certain way, I tend to believe it is called fate.

    or alight at a different destination,
    living in another dimension?

    A few seconds is all it takes
    to alter the direction of our fate.

    Could we be loving
    a different someone
    if the intervals of
    our lives had been adjusted?

    well...

    maybe

    There are some questions that will never be answered, sweetheart. I for one feel life is meant to be lived, live it to the fullest, take in all you can and do not spend too much time analyzing it..for life is so short, so very short:)

    I am proud of you, good work, my friend

    God bless and a big hug,

    5/5 Ingrid

    I made a mistake, sweetheart. It should be "do we really scrutinize"

    Sorry, I am a bit dense today, ha ha ha

    Write on, hun..you are doing great:)

    I really like this, as mentioned before, it is thought provoking!

    Just one thing

    "Do we really scrutinized
    our actions?
    Accepting the consequences
    that will ripple the
    layers of our future?"

    Scrutinized should be scrutinize

    Other than that, excellent job!

    I did really miss reading new poems from you. You always left me thinking each time i read one of your poem because you'd the ability to let me think about the importance of simple things. Maybe and but, are words that i use so much. But can we really change the past? Infact we think if you have done things the other way around it would be better, but we are just confusing ourselves. As the saying goes, "everything has done for a special reason". I do believe in that and it helps me to accepts things as it is. Very well done my friend. 5/5, kel.

    All very good questions. Think a lot of people sometimes ask themselves these questions.

    "What if we had turned left
    instead of right?
    Would we still be taking
    the same path that
    brought us here today?"

    "A few seconds is all it takes
    to alter the direction of our fate."

    I really love these lines
    Overall, a great poem!

    Take care
