Serenity

The two-lane highway stretches in the distance.
With no end in sight as houses, small towns and hills run together
Blurred by the pace and lack of interest in the scenery
I know where I'm going, I know how to get there.
My destination is my only concern.
How much longer can I wait?
Beyond that, what am I going to do, think and feel when I get there?

The slightest of smiles crosses my lips as the cool air makes a mess of my hair
How can such a contradiction be so satisfying to experience?
Its chaos is my order
Nothing is as expected, exactly how it should be.
I wouldn't have it any other way.

Finally, the familiar scent of freedom brings me back.
I wandered a bit in thought, but that's okay
Whatever I give, you'll gladly accept.
No questions, no comments, no limits.
I can barely contain myself, and I almost miss my turn...again.

Further down the road I can hear what I've waited for.
What I came here for, what I wanted, what I needed.
Birds dart across the sky stealing the first rays of the day
Their calls sounds like laughter mocking my decisions


I don't really know where to go from here.
I aim to get atleast two more stanzas in there,
But my brain is gradually switching off.

A few grammatical errors. 'It's' and commas. Besides those, I love the flow. The vocabulary is great and sounds nice. It's still a wip, but for a start, good work. 7.5/10.

Its chaos is my order

An apostrophe is not needed in that sentence, because that would make it;
It is chaos is my order.
I want it to be;
Its chaos is my order.

Like... Its not It's (It is)

Looking good so far, that line in red is an edited version of your own. I thought what I put made more sense and added to the flow better.

Up to you if you keep it :).

Maybe you can use that better.

'It is chaos as my order'

It's funny you say that, I thought the same.
I was going to wait to see what others thought.
I will edit that now, thanks Luke.

I've added another stanza.
