What is the figurative language of these quotes from Anne Frank's Diary??

1. “...the clouds are moving in on us, and the ring between us and the approaching danger is being pulled tighter and tighter.”

2. “In the meantime, we’ve been cut off by the dark mass of clouds…”

Explanation:

Function of Figurative Language. The primary function of figurative language is to force readers to imagine what a writer wants to express. Figurative language is not meant to convey literal meanings, and often it compares one concept with another in order to make the first concept easier to undertand

It maintains a consistent meaning regardless of the context, with the intended meaning corresponding exactly to the meaning of the individual words.
