What defines confinement?

Is it the four bare walls

Trapping you inside them

Behind closed metal doors

.

Is it judges sentence

Locking you away

Preaching of repentance

At a later day

.

Is it fear inside us

of death or life around

of world were hope is easily lost

and much harder to be found

.

For each the cell is different

That keeps us from our light

And yet each one’s confinement

Takes away our sight
