The alliteration on first line is really pretty, I think someone already said this but
you could make the poem a bit more metrical, maybe something like this
Contentment comes not in the catch
but in the breathless chase, the hope
that never dies. In how we rise
I also think the enjambment here would be really interesting.
Then bringing up in “how we rise” highlights the rhyme a bit more imo, whether that's a
good thing honestly depends on your intention. Then I feel like the 'new' between next
and dawn breaks the flow a bit.
Off Topic, but I don't think anyone can really tell whether a poem is good or not,the
best we can really say is if whether we like it or not
