Maybe you are wrong.
It may be true.
• Maybe = perhaps
maybe is an adverb, meaning perhaps or possibly.
- Maybe it will stop raining soon. = Perhaps it will stop raining soon.
• May be = is possibly
may be is a verbal construction, formed of the modal verb may and the verb be, which can be used in sentences like “He may be in the office today”. Note that, if you were to rewrite this sentence with maybe, you would say “Maybe he is in the office today”. Because maybe is an adverb, you need to add a verb to the sentence (is, a form of be, in that case).
May is a modal verb which indicates possibility.
- He may be lost = It is possible that he is lost
