The Boy with Nails in His Eyes by Tim Burton

The Boy with Nails in His Eyes
put up his aluminum tree.
It looked pretty strange
because he couldn't really see.

Anticipation

It doesn't get better
Than waiting for a letter
Unless you imagine a life
With a girl before you've met her

Not in vain

History

I always thought you could only love

All a bit pointless
And what did we ever achieve?
Then again,
You could say that about the history
Of the whole Human race
