When all is lost I look inward
Finding myself again
Nothing has gone as planned
Yet I still stand
With my head high
As the world looks smaller below
I look to the sky

I really enjoyed this. Sometimes when everything seems to be going wrong, or I am in utter dread of something, I remember that Earth is a small speck of dust, suspended in a sunbeam. I have connected that to your poem. I think about this idea often, and it comforts me, and lets me reflect.

Yes, that is exactly what I was thinking as I wrote it. I am glad that I helped bring you the comfort I was feeling in this moment.

Amazing! As a want-to-be writer, I sit down to write with certain motivations. I experience a sense of release, because I put whatever I am feeling into the piece. I hope that the reader experiences the sense of release of the emotions as well; I write for them. My main motivation is to have empathy with the reader. I relate very much to what you said!

I will check out your work when I am able to. I also feel a sense of release when I write, and I am very honest. This is why so many of them are as dark as they are. These are the struggles and feelings I have faced. I hope that when I rise and fight my battles that this helps you in some way as well. Thank you so much for your kind words. Peace to you my new friend.

Could the first line be clarified by a tweak? It may be me, but I think it needs something. Apart from that I like the way the poem works. G:)
