Music is a part of my existence and I can't imagine being without it. I started singing as soon as I learned to talk and harmonized when my mother and father sang since grade 1. My father wrote a song called "I love you Timothy" (sang by Carike Keuzenkamp) and he was a part of my writing inspiration. I never really tried to write songs, it just happened when I was overwhelmed by emotion.
The song you can download at the bottom of this post is called, "Perfect sense" and this is why I wrote it:
Every woman needs to be loved by her man and when that need isn't met it hurts to be so close (physically) to someone yet so far because of the absence of his affection for her. When I wrote this song, I thought that if my man doesn't want to love me it would cause much less pain if he would rather leave me than being with me without showing me any affection. Later I discovered that my self worth was rooted in my husbands love for me instead of my identity in Christ, which came as a big shock since I was a Christian from as long as I can remember. I started to depend on Christ to lift me up and to fill my empty spaces daily and that took a heavy burden of my husband's shoulders! That was the turning point for us. Our relationship became much more relaxed and I love him more than ever before. When I now listen to this song (10 years later) I am so thankful for what Christ has done for me and that my husband is still by my side. We are still growing in our relationship and I would like to write a new song about the man I see through His eyes instead of my own!!

Here is the lyrics:
Perfect Sense
(words: JM Taljaard, music: JM Taljaard)
When I look in your eyes they tease me.
When I see your smile it sets my imagination free.
Have you ever heard those ridiculous songs:
love me or leave me...
Well darling, they make perfect sense to me.
I never knew that I was so empty inside,
and every time I feel it, it hurts me.
Are you really blind or don't you want to see:
love me or leave me...
Please darling, fill up this emptiness in me.
I want you to hold me tight,
I want you to kiss me till morning light.
I need you to have a burning fire for me,
'cause darling I have this burning desire for you...
That makes perfect sense to me.
