As the snow falls to the ground
I look up at the sky
and ask only one question
why?
it echoes through the sky
it reaches over mountains
yet the answer was never clear
no matter how many times I asked
as I lie here now dead in front of you
I don't want anyone to be sad, if anyone is
I want them to be glad
for my torment has finally come to an end
I lived my life as if everyday was my last
so you may think I don't leave regrets
but I leave a huge one behind
bigger then any words could explain
The regret of breaking a promise
what that promise is shall never be known
but the one I am talking about knows
of what I speak of
so with for my final words and wishes
I want all those that have come here
on this wonderful day
and those that this will be sent to
to live happy lives
the kind I was never able to
I look up at the sky
and ask only one question
why?
it echoes through the sky
it reaches over mountains
yet the answer was never clear
no matter how many times I asked
as I lie here now dead in front of you
I don't want anyone to be sad, if anyone is
I want them to be glad
for my torment has finally come to an end
I lived my life as if everyday was my last
so you may think I don't leave regrets
but I leave a huge one behind
bigger then any words could explain
The regret of breaking a promise
what that promise is shall never be known
but the one I am talking about knows
of what I speak of
so with for my final words and wishes
I want all those that have come here
on this wonderful day
and those that this will be sent to
to live happy lives
the kind I was never able to

This poem is very emotional.. I understand where you're coming from though. Leaving this earth with a broken promise hanging over your shoulder but it's not too late, You can still make up for that promise. Hell you may even be able to hold up the promise. I don't think it's sad though, I think it's real. I think it's right. It's right to realize what you did wrong but giving up on it isn't the answer. You should try to fix it before time is really up. I really don't like the title so it makes me very happy it is going to be changed.. I would suggest something more like 'tormented ending' or 'Promised ending'. Play around with those words and it should be grand. This poem has inspired me so thank you for posting it. Great job!
