"Really nicely done!"

I would have to say indeed that this isn't as sad as I think you may have been aiming for. However it is a good background theme song to say... a devastated battle ground littered with the fallen and a lone warrior standing among them. I guess it isn't so much sad, but it has a melancholic sound to it. A kind of feeling of regret of what had just perspired.
I think it's really well orchestrated. Keep up the good work.

"An Incredible Piece of Work"

Melancholy anger is what I would say is the main theme in the song, which while it is not a common combination was brillianly executed and well expressed throughout the song. I enjoyed this and could definately invision it as a score for a movie. One where both sides face almost iminate failure and are willing to fight to the death until "Nothing is Left".
I feel as though the sorrowful part in the middle of the piece could have gone on a little longer, to further exaggerate the fact that while this piece is incredibly intense it is also expressing a feeling of sorrow. Then again maybe that's just because I tend to enjoy alot of really sorrowful pieces. Don't get me wrong here, the feeling of sorrow is definately present here, I'm just saying it may have helped to further communicate that feeling to the listener. The transition back into the main, intense, theme was brilliantly done and I can really appreciate that because transitions between ideas in songs is often the most difficult part of composing for me. I enjoyed the guitar part immensely, and it supplied a good way to help build the piece into what it was. It did seem like it might have been missing a little something in a spot or two, but as I am not entirely sure exactly what it was. Which is good as that means it may be something minute, and anyway the piece did well without it. One thing I think might have been better is if you had added a little more variation, but it might just seem that way because the main idea is so intense and present. Overall it is a brilliant piece, and I have trouble finding critiques in it. It was incredibly well done. What did you use to compose this? This piece is inspiring me to compose on a grander scale for various instruments.

"Breathtaking"

There are very few pieces of music that really move me and send a shiver down my spine, however this is definitely one of them! There are moments in this song that really touch me, a powerful tool in the realm of music! If sad but intense is the feel you were after, you definitely achieved it in this piece. The different layers work extremely well together, the different sounds blending wonderfully to produce an absolute masterpiece. I could easily listen to this time and time again without getting bored of it.

This is quite honestly better than some more mainstream music that is of a similar style. You've displayed an amazing talent with this, don't waste it! I expect to hear more from you! :p
