Fantasy Map Progress!

I felt like I owed you readers a poat, so I decided to share with you the progress (or... lack of) of my fantasy map!

How time has passed... and this is all I have for my map so far... >:O

I'm thinking of making a reverse waterfall, a forest of trees that make music when the wind blows, something fire/ice (maybe an island?), and other cool fantasy landmarks, but I'm not sure where to place them or how to artistically (yet simple enough to paint) depict those cool things.

Also, I'm not sure if it's overkill, or appropriate for a fantasy world. But I guess since it's only an artsy personal thing, I can add whatever.

In that case, I'm making up names based off all sorts of literary devices.

Yay puns and alliteration and cheesy wordplay :P

I really want to go to my fantasy land, like now.

You're all invited.

Nothing is overkill in a fantasy world. By the way you're really good at drawing maps

At the Morikami Museum, in the garden, they have trees resembling bamboo that, whenever the wind blows, they make pretty music. Maybe that visual can help with your musical trees idea. : )

"And we will never be alone again, 'cause it doesn't happen every day... kinda counted on you being a friend. Can I give it up or give it away? Now I thought about what I wanna say, but I never really know where to go so I chained myself to a friend, 'cause I know it unlocks like a door."
"My gears, they grind more each day, and I feel like they're gonna grind away. And the city blocks, they drive me wild, they're never ending, mile after mile. I just don't know what to do, I'm too afraid to love you."
"It's only in your head you feel left out or looked down on.."
"Think of me, think of me fondly when we've said goodbye. Remember me, once in a while, please promise me you'll try."

"At night when the stars light up my room, I sit by myself, talking to the moon... trying to get to you. In hopes you're on the other side, talking to me too.. Or am I a fool who sits alone, talking to the moon?"
"Pretty, pretty, please, if you ever, ever feel like you're nothing.... you are perfect... to me."
"I want love to roll me over slowly, stick a knife inside me, and twist it all around. I want love to grab my fingers gently, slam them in a doorway, put my face into the ground."
"But I'm a freak, I'm a weirdo... What the hell am I doing here?!? I don't belong here..."
"You use your heart as a weapon, and it hurts like heaven."
