Suppose you are confined to four walls
Don’t get to see the sky
Live in a space just too small
But aren’t to question why.
The room doesn’t have a window
Only a door to shut you out
Can’t know when it’s tomorrow
What’s today is in doubt.
Imagine for it isn’t that hard
There can be such a place
Where from all else debarred
You’re alive in death’s embrace.
You alone with a fire within
Without a thing to defend
Caged for what’s passed as sin
It’s too late to amend.
Let’s stop here this imagined doom
For you haven’t preferred to choose
The pitiless hell of a windowless room
With only a hanging noose!

I would like to translate this poem
It would be a horrible place to be in..... a narrow room with no windows and a noose hanging overhead! The reality of it is so shocking! ! You are able to create that sense of suffocation! Great write!
