    As did I.

    Now, it could be poetry, or perhaps simply words. Most likely it is poetry.

    I wrote this poem as a challenge for a riddle
    The master poet that inspired the first line is Kahlil Gibran
    Quote from The Prophet;
    "People of Orphalese, beauty is life when life unveils her holy face.
    But you are life and you are the veil.
    Beauty is eternity gazing at itself in a mirror.
    But you are eternity and your are the mirror"

    It treads a razors edge that is mysteriously narrow
    Was inspired by a line from Bob Dylan's "Shelter from the Storm" Beauty walks a razor's edge, someday I'll make it mine"

    Dwelling in the passions of those that behold
    This is the line I thought would give the riddle away inspired by the cliche Beauty is in the Eye of the Beholder

    It may often be shallow, or it may be very deep
    Was inspired by the cliche "beauty is only skin deep"
    Physical beauty is superficial and is not as important as a person's intellectual, emotional, and spiritual qualities.

    But I understand how love can be perceived in terms of shallow, or deep

    Some hear it in the melody of their favorite song
    If you think of it fondly you cannot get it wrong

    When I wrote this poem I was thinking of beauty. When most read this poem they thought of love
    beauty
    1 : the quality or aggregate of qualities in a person or thing that gives pleasure to the senses or pleasurably exalts the mind or spirit : LOVELINESS
    2 : a beautiful person or thing; especially : a beautiful woman
    3 : a particularly graceful, ornamental, or excellent quality
    4 : a brilliant, extreme, or egregious example or instance
    5 : BOTTOM
