Here's a song i wrote that's in the poetry form of a pantoum. It seems to me a very beautiful acoustic song. Just so you know, Rush's "The Larger Bowl" is a pantoum and thats what inspired me to write this song:

Serene Thoughts
Raven Xalus

Dreaming of lullabies
In a guarded meadow
Looking for a place to go without you
I see nowhere to go

In a guarded meadow
Peace is my favorite feeling
I see nowhere to go
But stay here alone without you

Peace is my favorite feeling
Watching the birds fly through the sky
But stay here alone here without you
I just cannot stand it anymore

Watching the birds fly through the sky
I think of that night
I just cannot stand it anymore
Why oh why?

I think of that night
When my pain and sorrow meant nothing to me
Why oh why?
I can't erase my feelings

When my pain and sorrow meant nothing to me
It was a long time ago
I can't erase my feelings
By just sitting down in a meadow

It was a long time ago
When you were there and I was happy
By just sitting down in a meadow
The curse will not lift forever

I want to see you
But now you're gone forever
I can't think serene thoughts
I was born to die and I was waiting for a reason to live
Like a phoenix rising from the flames...

...so shall the epic journey unfold as we discover our ancient future and craft legends through fire and flight.

This is a night of trance...
