    First and foremost: UUUUUUUSE APOSTROPHES. D: this was really promising until you skipped them.

    Oh and, just a tip, it happens to me - your ? or your ! can't tell which have been changed to gibberish, go back and replace the gibberish and this time it should work.

    This poem could benefit from line breaks, such as at that cluster of 'I don't's.

    Now I'm going to give that a 4/5 because it has a lot to say but it needs a little bit of help saying it. I really love the titular line and the one after, it's very original and sweet.

    The rest though I dunno, doesn't fit my personal wishes for a poem. It doesn't use any tricks or whatnot like imagery, changing of flow, line breaks at good moments, etc. I'd say rhyme but you'd take me for one of those annoying people who think poetry needs to rhyme - it doesn't.

    Erm, I digress. So. I won't go line by line because they're all... I dunno they say it, but it's hard to feel it. Right now, they're just sad words. You can make them sad thoughts without too much effort, hence the 4. You have a nice theme and a nice method - the 'yes but no' feeling, it's good, so work on it. :3
