The process exited, so systemd thinks the service has exited. You have a
'-D' option, which probably means daemonize, but you haven't set an
appropriate Type declaration in the service file.
If the service offers it, the best way to do simple services with systemd
is with *foreground* options in ExecStart. Then set Type=simple.
STDOUT/STDERR all goes to the journal, making it easier to see what happens
if the service legitimately fails.
Take a look at packaged files in /usr/lib/systemd/system - plenty of
examples to work from.
