‘Puzzles Put Together’– Feb 18,2015 by Jason Loutitt 

Pieces thought lost

Pictures with a spot

Rumors of the missing

Return of the forgot

 

Interweaving messages

Sorted on their own

Sampling the options

On their own they did grow

 

Puzzles put together

By energy itself

Left in yesterday’s corner

Become our new must

 

Must we know in order to go

Or is going only through the dark

And if trust became not a way but the life

Can we lift each other when we fall

 

Pieces we had broke

On the pictures we hung up

Rumors of a message

Returned a mind to our hope

 

Interweaving clues became

Leading paths for our journey

Opening our expectations

To grow alongside them

 

Puzzles put themselves

Together on their own

Becoming today’s structure

Holding our future selves

 

Flower folding in the shade

Only holds that very minute

But opens in a spot of sun

To be that very instant

‘Followed My Advice’– Feb 17,2015 by Jason Loutitt

The list grew while I did not

A tree sprouted while

The earth did shout

What have you become

 

Measured happiness in moments

Without pictures

To hold them in

A more sacred place

 

Forgave the excuse of having reason

To justify cause and effect

Only to sit and listen

For what I knew I could not hear

 

So I followed the advice I gave you

In order to find my place in this world

Away from a draw to include me

In some creative plan of destiny

 

And because of this

Because of you

I have become more than

I ever will know

 

And because of this

Because of you

I have become all you have become

While I did try to learn how to show

 

My love wasn’t going to revolve

On me or what was mine

My hope wasn’t going to unfold

For meaning or for time

 

You followed my advice and I

Simply had to cry

For even though I didn’t listen

Time heard what I had inside

‘Rogues in Our Machine’– Feb 17,2015 by Jason Loutitt

Each and every one of us

Held up a light

Screwing perspective in

As if we had the right

 

We must accept never will we

Of letting go responsibly

Holding us forever

But remember

Never forgiving her

Never forgot he 

 

For any decision of ready

We may make and allow

Moving from one frame

To another to another to another

To only show how, how, how

 

Thought it just needed

positive change or circumstance

But even that is plight

For if in our power

It was just as wrong as we were ever so

Ever so, ever so, right, right, right 

 

What we will accept, you see

Is our fate is one day living

Delicately with energy

Not by now what we do or do not

But that by what we did

In doing that to us

Though still the same vibration

We totally forgot 

 

We would have aimed to be

Loved by sustainability

Held by renewal

And succeed by right growth

But we see, it kept us coming back

To us knowing we were on our knees

For the assault we threw at life

From what we thought we knew

And really really could

See see see 

 

Holding us in place,

Over and over

With prayer paper flying freely away

From compassion to a feeling

Of personal pain and personal greed 

 

Greed to wish for those things

That didn’t remove a tremble in a soul

A spirit fractured and faltering

A hope fading and falling

And that now is our living truth

Threw away by our wishes

To be oh so tall, tall, tall 

 

Placed in our cage

By our own judgement through the years

By our knowledge of the things we knew

By our inability to reach right through

And grab us by our real need 

 

Even despite that we are still granted

A release to the light

We know now it is not just something

That hurtful us has also made

Just like our living, a little bit more true 

 

It was in us, around us, through us but not of us

To throw us in the direction of instead us being of it

Where who is now defined as us

and them defined as we 

 

So we are left now with this

Little thing in mind

That none of this is really real

For real was

The life of love we almost left behind

Dealing in our oh so warming teal

By our aim to achieve

What the mask of our wishes

Simply didn’t reveal 

 

Now shedding our last time together

Love, hope, compassion and virtue

Perhaps just another rhyme

Life, although we the few are rogues

In your machine we do roar out

To announce we will not give in

To our momentary plight

Of seeming to be separate 

 

We indeed own our places

We indeed have our rights

We indeed call the shots

To giving away all we

Ever ever got 

 

It will be cast

Out to help as much and as many

As our fractured souls can muster

But remember, forgive life we always can

For it was just the shadow of us

That had momentarily

Tarnished the luster 

 

Life, perhaps it was you all along

We only ever wished to care for

To lift us up from our plight

To give hope to our fluster 

 

Perhaps in the hurt we felt

The love we still feel for you

Will be held up now as the light

To announce anything and anyone

Can be indeed and indeed be

Free and truly truly true

 

‘Overlooked’ – May 25,2014 by Jason Loutitt

There it is to finally say

That spot in that moment

Holding our placement in place

I undermined the meaning

Oh so long

Overlooked the value

Of the last line of our song

 

There it was in its final cry

The moment lifting us above

Scenery our minds had to try

To attach to the vision

Overlooking the fact

What was seen was seen through spirit

That always had our back

 

There we are in our future place

Together with the change

Not affecting anything done or to do

But only what we always

Thought for sure we knew

 

For we knew the truth

Of love, hope and caring

Only sacrificed its totem

In place of what we were bearing

Of the last line of this song

I wrote this song for you

So you may one day sing

We always held each other

‘A thousand times’ – Nov 28,2012 by Jason Loutitt

Ever give up all you had A thousand times

Ever wished you felt A thousand times

Ever want the start A thousand times

Ever dreamed you did A thousand times

Ever change the world A thousand times

And have it say to you That a thousand times

Was more than enough.

For it saw you then After the first

But you still went after The thousandth time.

Ever give up all you had A thousand times

Ever wished you felt A thousand times

Ever want the start A thousand times

Ever dreamed you did A thousand times

Ever change the world A thousand times

And have it say to you

That a thousand times

Was more than enough.

For it saw you then After the first

But you still went after The thousandth time.

Ever give up all you had A thousand times

Ever wished you felt A thousand times

Ever want the start A thousand times

Ever dreamed you did A thousand times

Ever change the world A thousand times

And have it say to you

That a thousand times Was more than enough

For it saw you then After the first

But you still went after

The thousandth time.

That a thousand times Was more than enough.

That a thousand times Was more than enough.

That a thousand times Was more than enough.

For it saw you then After the first

But you still went after The thousandth time.
