I just wanna talk to you

I could say you weren’t good for me / I could say it was for the best / I could say I think about you everyday / I could say all the things you want me to say / But you wouldn’t listen anyway /

The premise here is.. relatable. Wanting to get the world off of your chest and get closure, but never being able to do so in a meaningful way.

The way I would change the setup here is to really hit the reader in the gut. The ending is able to be predicted from the beginning (and the title). Really draw the reader in, make them think it’s a love poem, that all you want in the world if for you to spend your time and your energy on them… THEN hit them with the fact that they wouldn’t hear you anyway. I’ve read a few that have hit me hard like that, but make it your own, in your own way.
