I hope you don't get offended because I want to give you some constructive criticism.

Like Sean said, you definitely need to curve your fingers or I don't see you improving, which would be a shame. Your movements are a LOT more restricted if you have rigid, flat fingers (and rigid elbows and shoulders, for that matter. But you should probably only worry about that if there are big leaps). You'll have a lot more control if you work on the physical mechanisms of piano playing.

From 0:26 onwards, the notes start to sound a little muddy (that could be the recording though), so maybe change the pedal a bit more often there. Also, throughout the piece in general, your tempo is a little off and the rhythm isn't too steady, and not in a rubato way.

I have to say that you're better than most people that claim they can play piano on YouTube. Right now I'm thinking of that bleached blonde lady with a muffin top who plays renditions of Rihanna and other artists on the piano, and she SUCKS LIKE SHIT and everyone thinks she's the piano god.

Keep at it! I liked the piece too btw, it's very relaxing.
