Have you heard?

Never alone
Never surrounded.
There’s never been so much noise
in such an empty space.
You’ve heard the stories, heard the myths, heard the rumors
there’s a place where
love is so abundant
so plentiful
you’d never know if it was missing.
so empty
so hateful
you’d never know it was love.
but a chance to experience that
that light
that light where everything is seen,
everything is exposed
everything is understood.
where the black meets the white to form
a rainbow.
who’d pass that up?
hold me tight,
never let me go.

Thanks! 

I definitely wrote, and intended, for the 5th line to be split up into 3--probably an editing error?

I like it, but I think the 5th line is a little too long. Maybe if you broke it into 3 lines it would sound better. More consistent.
