More beautiful than a blooming flower
She wonders why she turns so many heads.
She stares downwards hour after hour
While men lie awake at home in their beds.
They lie there wondering what they could say.
Anything to make her forever theirs.
They wish for the same thing day after day.
Their desire is their only of cares.
Her chocolate-like eyes do not help at all
And her power to seduce frightens me.
She has a smile that makes grown men fall.
But this is something that she just can’t see.
Of all that I know, this much must be true,
She may not see it, but I know I do.

I think many woman can understand where you're coming from with this one.... I have heard many insist that beauty is not one of their best qualities w/o knowing that it truly is.
This poem is beautiful... The rhyming is so fluent and it just works together wonderfully.
Thank you for entering and good luck in the contest
