tighter than anything

fingers crossed
tighter than shoelaces
tighter than my rib cage closing in on my heart
tighter than my hands clutching my pillow
tighter than my teeth biting into my lips
tighter than my closed eyes
fingers crossed

but i know i hope too much
i just [hope] that hoping doesn't knock me to the floor again.
