My dearest friend, if you don't mind
I'd like to join you by your side,
where we can gaze into the stars
And sit together,
now and forever
For it is plain as anyone can see,
We're simply meant to be
I started getting into this 'Tim-Burton' mood, and ended up watching his films like The Corpse Bride & The Nightmare Before Christmas leading up to Halloween, so it was only natural that I felt like recreating and commemmorating the festivities inspired by one of my favourite films. For those unfamiliar, this is the iconic ending scene of the film, The Nightmare Before Christmas, where Jack Skellington realizes his feelings for Sally. Of course, it's my own interpretation of the scene, which I thought was a lot warmer and touching, despite the eerie-cold macabre setting of the film.

Thanks pal! It's strange because the film itself portrays everything quite cold and dark, despite how intimate and romantic the scene actually is.

I wish he did more films like those though

Well he might in the future. You never know. I think I heard somewhere that he might be planning a sequel to his movie Beetlejuice. Now that is a movie I would definitely go to see in theaters.

Theres like a mix of science fiction feel, I think. Not sure really sure why.
