They join each other as the church bells ring

What she wanted wasn't right
That's what she'd been told
Come another cloudy night
The wind was blowing cold

An old house and unmowed grass
And the staring demon in the looking glass
Feelings that she couldn't avert
She loved that boy so much it hurt

They told him "She's not into you
Better find someone else"
Not realizing what they put him through
'Til it ended with church bells

An old house and unmowed grass
The demon stares from the looking glass
As two cursed souls in the night
Desperately search for Heaven's light

She had once told him to
Listen to his heart
One thing she surely knew:
They couldn't stand another day apart

That night they agreed to meet
At a moonlit cemetery
They both admitted their defeat
And gave in to destiny

The abandoned house and unmowed grass
And the demon still in the looking glass
It was the cursed souls' last night
The consequences were dire
For what they thought was heavenly light
Turned out to be hellfire

Angels heavy-heartedly sing

They join each other as the church bells ring
So, my first poem after my writer's block. Don't know if I should feel proud or sad. Love stories aren't really my thing, you see ^^; I don't even know if this is any good, but I hope it doesn't make readers too disappointed or bored. The title is a little ex tempore, since I had to come up with something; "love story" has been ruined by Taylor Swift (though the song is okay) and "untitled" would have been too lame. Open for feedback.
