When she stopped needing validation
And just focused on herself
She realised she should probably
Re-evaluate everything else.
Needless is a short poem by Ms Moem.

Undefeated
She was tired and frustrated
But her task was uncompleted
So she carried on going
As she wouldn’t be defeated.

My Mummy Heart | A Poem
My Mummy Heart
I had a heart I thought was full of love.
And then I met you.
And it grew.
I had a hand that I didn’t know was empty
Until I felt yours in mine.
Such a precious time.
I didn’t know how fierce I could be
Until it came to protecting you.
My courage grew.
I thought I had seen everything the world has to offer
Until I looked at it with you.
I saw life anew.
I had a heart I thought was full of love
Until I met you
And my mummy heart grew.
My Mummy Heart is a short poem about motherhood by Ms Moem.
Brimful Of Aspiration | Short Poem
Brimful of aspiration,
Of energy and passion,
She decided she was worth it;
That’s when the magic happened.

Our Weird And Wonderful Life | Wedding Poem
Our Weird And Wonderful Life
Other people wonder, but they cannot understand.
They don’t know how it feels when we hold each other’s hand.
They don’t know our in-jokes, nor what makes us tick,
But that doesn’t matter. Not one little bit.
Because this is just ours and it isn’t to share.
The only thing that matters is that both of us care
About this relationship and the way we are together;
Not out of obligation, but because it is a pleasure.
We have our peculiarities but they make us unique;
Our moments of craziness can be tender and sweet.
We’re all a little weird in our own special way
And we celebrate those oddities as we unite today.
So let’s keep on going and forge our own path,
Sharing every moment and making each other laugh.
We get to decide the shape of our love.
This is our chance and this is for us.
Our Weird And Wonderful Life is a poem by Ms Moem.

You Belong With Me
You Belong With Me
You belong with me, my love
And I belong with you.
We should live life side by side
In everything we do.
You belong with me today,
For now and ever more.
And I belong with you, my dear,
The one that I adore.
We were meant to be, I know;
It’s written in the stars.
I love the way we are as one
And everything you are.
Just think of all the moments
Aligning for us to meet
So once we found each other
We were bound to feel complete.
But this part of our story
We’ll sit and write together.
Hanging memories on the wall
Of the home we’ll share forever.
So, both of us are certain
As we each say ‘I do’
That you belong with me, my love,
And I belong with you.

Obligations
It’s more obvious than you think
Acting out of obligation.
Instead, act from the heart
And raise your vibration.

Own The Sky Poem
Own The Sky – I wrote this poem back in 2014! Original post here: http://msmoem.com/2014/poetry-2/spread-your-wings/
I keep seeing it being shared, though it has sadly lost credit along the way. It’s bittersweet. Even so, it’s still pretty special to see people quoting it alongside their instagram pictures.
Incidentally, if you’d like to keep up with my poetry on instagram, come and find me @msmoem.
Here are a few examples of my poem out in the wild. Bonus points go to the few lovely souls who have indeed tagged me in which makes me happy:
It is so important if you see some words you like that someone else has taken the time to write, to remember to attribute the work to the author. You wouldn’t take a painting and claim to have created it yourself. Artforms like poetry are in the same category.
Without sounding all woe is me, it can be hard as a poet to find your place in the world to be heard. And that aside, it’s really just manners. I love it when people share my work, I really do. It is an absolute privilege. However when it is left uncredited or worse still, recreated and someone else has stuck their brand on it (yes, this has happened! and polite requests to add credit were ignored 🙁 ) it disconnects me from valuable feedback that I use to help better my craft.
Anyway, it is still extremely flattering to see my words travel so widely. And really, being read is more important than acclaim. Even if just one person appreciates your art, then that’s another strand to your rainbow!
I’m not anti-sharing, I’m really not. In fact I encourage. Just link a girl up, just sayin’! 🙂
Anyway, if you ever do want to share any of my poems, please do #hashtag or @at me @msmoem. You can find me on instagram, youtube, pinterest and facebook.
To sum up, sharing with credit = good, omitting or taking credit = bad.
And to end on a positive note…
Spread your wings and keep flying!
#OwnTheSky
In a funny way, the words themselves have done exactly what I wrote. Out there owning the sky all by themselves. That’s a thought to leave me with a smile.

Regret Or Repair
In moments of realization
You have a choice to make.
Either let regret consume you
Or rectify your mistake.

Moving Forward
Moving forward. Onward. Up.
Choose the way you see your cup.
Half depleted? Semi-full?
Grab the horns. Steer that bull.
