I've seen in the past but never asked.
I've walked around but never passed.
I dreamed to be successful, to be grateful.

I merely thought I lived my life, so perfectly and fine.
I wish I had what it takes to have you again by my side.
...

I never surpassed the things I hold, the things I wanted to improve.
But right now I will just a move. I'll walk forward and prove.

I'll keep trying and stop lying,
I'll keep shining and stop crying.

I'll be your light and the one who holds you close at night. ❤

Ehh, neatly done.
Some good things were of course, the attempt to parallel line structure within stanzas - more impacting on the reader.
There's also rhyming. Enjoyable to read.

My opinion, but you could play around with more devices in poetry ^^ Such as line breaks. Your sentences are mostly one per line. In poetry, however, it should be different, from, say a prose. A line break makes it more, enjoyable, for lack of a better word, to read when you break up the sentences.

Still, good :3
