Unrequited love resulting to broken relationships or heart can be or could correspond to death. It may seem overly rated but this happens in real life as emotions play a big part to a person's well being. This is what makes us human.

Answer:

The heartbreak of unrequited love is akin to death.

Explanation:

These lines convey the idea that a broken heart due to unrequited love is as painful and as sad as death. We learn that the person being discussed is most likely young and in love. However, her heart was broken because her love was not reciprocated. This was so painful it felt like a death to her, and to those who observed it.

Use 10 similes and 10 metaphors in meaningful<br> sentences
Virty [35]

Both simile and metaphor compare two different things, but the simile uses words such as "like" or "as" to make that comparison, while the metaphor does not.

The 10 similes are the following:

  1. My head felt like a balloon after our roller-coaster ride.
  2. She has lips as rose petals.
  3. His eyes are like two bright stars.
  4. This cake is like a rock!
  5. She said her children are like little tornadoes when they play together.
  6. Mona is as a delicate flower.
  7. My father is so protective I've always said he is like a bear.
  8. Anna swims like a fish, so I am sure she will win the competition.
  9. That poor boy was innocent as a lamb.
  10. My ex was always acting like a queen.

The 10 metaphors are the following:

  1. Her veiny hands were two white spiders when she reached out.
  2. My husband is a lion when someone messes with our kids.
  3. Her hair was a brown ocean of endless waves.
  4. After so many mosquito bites, her legs were constellations.
  5. Chris was quite the Judas, so I will never forgive him.
  6. My sorrow is a deep, dark, bottomless well.
  7. I tried dating him, but his heart is an iceberg.
  8. When we were in love, his embrace was my home.
  9. After working out so much, he has rocks for biceps.
  10. I was but a pawn in her plan to conquer.

<h3>What is the difference between simile and metaphor?</h3>

Both simile and metaphors are types of figurative language that consist of comparing different things. The purpose is to show, with a colorful language, that one thing has certain characteristics that belong to another thing.

The difference between a simile and a metaphor is that the simile relies on the use of words such as "like" and "as", whereas the metaphor does not. For example, suppose you want to say someone has soft skin. You can compare it to cotton using either a simile or a metaphor:

  • Simile: She has skin like cotton.
  • Metaphor: He skin is cotton.

With the information above in mind, we can conclude that the answers provided above are correct.
