The cynical answer is, "it collapsed from its own internal contradictions." In fact, the people living under Soviet government realized that the system under which they lived did not keep pace with the lifestyle and material goods offered by the West, and that they did not enjoy the individual freedoms that they imply. The movement began in the satellite states like Poland and Czechoslovakia and spread toward East Germany and Russia.

Does the collapse of the Soviet Union prove that communism doesn't work?

No, the collapse of the USSR does not actually prove that communism doesn't work, any more than the failure of Joe's Fish and Chips proves that restaurants don't work. The failure of the Soviet Union and its satellite states is just one example in which a paranoid version of communism didn't work. It may well be that it is possible to do it better. Although I offer no guarantees.
