Ok. I'll bite.
The thing I like about this image is the contrasts...lovely black and white tones. The main subject of the image seems to be the two people sitting on the bench. I like that their poses mirror each other.
But several things distract from the main subject. The background has lots of detail that draws attention--it's busy. If you had used selective focus to throw the background into a blur, it might have simplified the composition and put the attention more firmly on your subject. The people are looking out of the frame at something that has drawn their interest--that pulls my attention to the left side of the image but there is nothing there to reward me. The horizon is tilted...it isn't always "wrong" to tilt the camera but in this case it gives me an unsettling feeling that the people are going to fall backwards with the bench.
So, in short, your composition does not help me know what to look at in this image. I don't feel like I'm looking at a candid, a portrait or an image with a story....it's just a moment in time and I don't know why it should interest me.
Hope that helps.
