A Laughable Thought

Gavel, please

Order within chaos, a laughable thought

Order within chaos

Have a seat, take the loss

Can't hear yourself think

Can't take a minute or two

Don't you dare blink

If only you had a clue

Of what days were to come

Before you entered this mess

Before you had to succumb

Not a moment of rest

You can't even yell

Who were you before?

Before you became just a shell

Lonely is a place you often go

Just chaos with a face

That you long to let go

And then like an old friend,

the quiet arrives

But you know for sure

it's just chaos in disguise

Because order within chaos

You have to find within

When you take the loss

Soon enough, must be a win
