Poem i’d like feedback on…

So as these hours come to an end,
I lay and contemplate the nights events,
dusk turns to dawn,
as I try to solve your problems.
But I have problems of my own.
How can I solve yours,
when I can’t fix mine.
And don’t you know we aren’t in control?
We are thumbtacks in the bigger picture,
moved along as we progress,
reaching,
striving
for the ultimate goal.
What is the ultimate goal?
Happiness, prosperity, long life…
what happens when all that can only coexist?
You cannot have one without the other.
It is all intertwined, a knot of confusion.
Centered around ourselves.
But everything isn’t always about us is it?
We care for others as well
But what happens when caring isn’t enough?
