Let's make it work for us they said
Never did they picture they'd end up dead...
They tried so hard to never let go
They trapped themselves, yes it's so
How could they have loved and lost
When all was right at any cost
Together they lie in vain- in wait
Waiting for love to turn to hate

That is very different then what most people would have done with the prompt. I agree about the last stanza too.

Quite a scary piece of poetry this realy... powerfully intense!
"Together they lie in vain- in wait
Waiting for love to turn to hate"
Full of suggestion... many things to ponder
