every morning, to help improve my mental wellbeing, i read poetry. i found this poem today that i thought i would share with you all while you wait for my next book ;)
          	
          	matter - erin hanson
          	you may not believe in magic,
          	but don't you think it's strange,
          	the amount of matter in our universe
          	has never slightly changed,
          	
          	that all which makes your body
          	was once part of something more,
          	and every breath you ever breathe
          	has seen it all before.
          	
          	there are countless scores of beauty
          	in all the things you despise.
          	it could have once been a shooting star
          	that now makes up your thighs.
          	
          	and atoms of forgotten life,
          	who've long since ceased to roam,
          	may now have the great honor
          	to call your crooked smile home.
          	
          	you may not believe in magic,
          	but i thought that you should know
          	the makings of your heart were born
          	fourteen billion years ago.
          	
          	so the next time you feel lonely,
          	when this world makes you feel small,
          	just remember that it's part of you,
          	and you're part of it all.
          	
          	-
          	
          	that's it :)) stay tuned for my next work !!
          	
          	be ok for me, ok ?
          	-maddie :)

hello author! 
          
          it's been a while :) I just want to thank you for your amazing work, I remember reading this for the first time and waiting for each chapter to come out. Oh yeah- I used to go by the cinnamon_roll user or whatever. I was extremely weird looking back and too much cussing. wayyy to much cussing. Anyways! This is about you and your work. Not me and how weird i was. Is find it really amazing that you were able to write such an amazing story that I know for sure brought at least a good amount of people to tears. I'm not sure if you're ever active on here anymore but I just really want to thank you. I was in a stupid mindset when I read this, but it gave me joy to see you had updated. I hope you are doing well. I'm no longer in the dreamsmp fanbase but i find the book amazing either way. The writing and details of everything. I'm just very thankful towards you. So I'll leave this on that note, and with that I bid you adue.
          
          your friendly otter

Hi. I know you probably won't even see this,but here i am anyways.
          I recently found Breathe,and your account. I spent my last 2 hours (or less) reading the entire thing. I just wanted to say,and yee,i already said many parts if this in the comment section of the last chapter of Breathe,but holy crap man. That story, fanfiction,and most definitely masterpiece,whatever you want to call it,it hit..deep. I just finished it,and it is better than almost every book I've read. Funny how words,a simple text,just dots and lines connected to make something you read,can hit you deep. But in a good way. I remembered many important things while reading that book. I realized many things. I,as a non good writer myself,wonder how a text can be so touching. For me,i say "sad" is when i cry. Leak tears. I certainly did in this book,but at the end,when i finished,it was a weird emotion. A mixture of sadness,but also mixed with happiness. And not to mention.. Understanding. Gratefulness. It was really touching to read this. I can't even explain it with words.
          Anyways...also wanted to say..
          You are one of the most underrated people i know on this planet we call Earth.
          I wish you the best.

You too!! <33 and stay safe

congrats on 900 votes on breathe! i didn't how else to introduce and as lovely as it would be to wait for 1k votes, I'm a very lazy person. just wanted to tell you how utterly amazing you are and how you've educated me on self harm, suicide attempts and the ways that can affect those around us. im fairly sure im not the only one you've impacted but i wanted to express this to the world and show off that wattpad writers can be awesome. im not entirely sure id be here without those nights of rereading breathe when the house became too loud.
           thanks alot bagel, your awesome <3
          (and no i didnt have the courage to pm shhh)

hello! it seems like you haven’t updated in awhile and i just wanted to check in and see if your okay!! <3 breathe really hit close to home and i related to dream in many ways, but also george and sapnap as i’ve been in both positions, just not to the extent. Your an amazing writer and i hope you know that. The story made me sob for hours and is definitely on of my favorites now.

bagel_pilot

@squashiee hi !! the reason i haven't updated in a while is because i am taking a bit of a break from writing for my mental health <3 i finished writing breathe and decided to take a step back and focus on myself before i started another book. thank you for checking in !! also, i'm so glad you enjoyed breathe :)) it means a lot to me <333

well, there we have it, folks. breathe has come to an end. i cannot express how much i love each and every one of you guys. you all are an amazing community that does nothing but lift each other up. the opportunities that breathe has brought me, from contract offers to speaking with people all around the world, have been incredible, and i am infinitely grateful. 
          
          i seriously cannot thank you guys enough for everything. all of your support has meant the world to me. 
          
          don't worry !! this is not the end of me. i will continue publishing, just with different stories and concepts. as beautiful as breathe was, it is time for it to end and i really hope you all enjoyed it and took something away from it. suicide is a real issue that affects millions and millions of people every single year, and it is often overlooked in society. please, if you guys are ever feeling down, message me on twitter or here. i am here for you guys. you all mean the world to me and each and every one of you are loved. 
          
          for now, i will be taking a bit of a break to allow myself to work on school and breathe. i also need to start putting together my next work, and that takes a lot of planning ahead. so for right now, i will still interact with you guys, but i will not be publishing.
          
          i hope you all have a wonderful rest of your day and i will see you all in the next one !!
          
          stay ok for me :))

@bagel_pilot I'm glad your taking a break after making such an astonishing and amazing story because you truly do deserve it. I'm glad you wrote breathe and educated so many of us about the importance of talking to a trusted person in our life and just breathe sometimes. I can't wait for your future stories and hope that I can stay around to be able to see them. I hope you remind yourself that you've impacted at least me (if not everybody who has read)! good luck in your academics <3

hey guys !! it's em :) I just wanted to post a message here real quick to let you know I'm not dead lmao. I unfortunately suffered a miscarriage this week and let me tell you, it's been equivalent to a week in hell. but don't worry, everything's fine. that's just why I haven't updated breathe in a while.
          
          I'm anticipating updating either today or tomorrow, but I wouldn't really bank on that, mostly because it's been really hard, and the grief of it will hit me like a freight train and knock me out for a few hours. don't worry, I'm not dead, I'm just doing my best. please have grace with me :)
          
          thank you guys again for your undying support <333 you all mean the world to me and I just wanted to keep you abreast with updates on breathe.
          
          stay okay for me everyone !! ily <3
