Heres a game that I believe I played well in but was outgunned in the last few moves... My opponent played well and I would just like to have any input or analysis anyone might offer that could help me improve in the future thanks ^_^

39. Should have been Rh7#.

-edit-

Sorry, didn't realize I was looking at the wrong side until I had already posted.

What was the though behind 39. .. Qh4?  I think Rh8 would have been stronger.

On move 15 you played 15.Be7 why didn't you play e5?

 I honestly was just opening up my f pawn, but yes e5 might have been a good alternative

I agree 15. Be7 was not the right move. Ne5 I felt was also good.

I also felt white did have a better position.

What was your thought by not recapturing the knight after 19 Nxe6?

Seems like ...Qxe6 20. b4 (discovering attack on pinned queen) ..c4 would allow you to move the queen to safety after dxc4.
