At the end I expected there to be
Something like nirvana or a peaceful place
But now I look down on my body from this lofty airspace
And wonder how this happened to me.
It isn't fair that I should die
So young, but so many things went awry
To put me up here in the sky.

Such a sad, sweet poem telling the darkness of death. I found the rhyme scheme you used very interesting. In fact, I do not think it hindered the flow in any way, but gave an extra touch. The feelings expressed are done so very well - a moving poem with a strong message.
