A Poem by Stark
"

just an awful story

"
As awful as our ending was
Or anyone elses, for that matter
I still believe deep in me
That the greatest thing, the greatest feeling
There is in this life

Is being in love, with someone, truly
I am an awful person, truly
To love someone so deeply one day
Then be devoid of it a minute later
Admittedly, the most awful thing 

To happen to you
Was me

this is a nice poem Stark. Though if mine, I'd cut it slightly differently to enhance the images you so deftly place in a reader's mind.
My quibbles are all punctuation. They cut off an image too soon I feel. Might want to consider the following:
remove the common in the 2nd line, which links the idea and sentiment as a shared experience, and end the line with a period as a stand-alone thought.
1st line of 2nd Verse: move comma after someone to end of line...let the line and image flow into the following line.
put an em dash (on this site its done by 2 hyphens together) again to achieve the flow through to next line.
last line would change the to a a simple grammatical continuation

I offer these thoughts as food for thought, an old poet to a younger one. Feel free to use or not

I love the sentiment and wisdom of your poem, wouldn't change it one bit. Just a little polish is all I think it needs

Keep on scribbling, you've got the poet in you
