‘Maybe’ is from a collection of poems I wrote in 1994/95, inspired by Julia, a girl that I once knew.

— ‘Maybe’ komt uit een verzameling gedichten die ik in 1994/95 schreef, geïnspireerd door Julia, een meisje dat ik ooit kende.

Is this real, am I really here with you?
maybe I am dreaming,

where do I start,
where do I stop, 
maybe, I'm not sure,
and maybe, I don't know,

all I know for sure,
is that I want to see you more,
and when we say goodbye, 
maybe, you'll want to see me more,
 
you are beautiful and warm, 
no words could better describe,
and I knew, very soon, 
that I'd be seeing you again, maybe,
 
now I'm confused, 
where does sex begin to end, 
and making love begin to start,
I think that you'll have the answer, maybe,

I enjoy the moments that I'm with you,
to feel you close to me,
to look at you and know,
we'll have this time together, maybe 

I have said enough,
I like it when you listen,
so maybe when you've read these lines, 
then perhaps you'll understand, maybe
