That's true. A simile compares things with like or as while a metaphor does not. An example would be something like "Her eyes <em>were the sea</em> and I was drowning." (hey that's actually pretty good I just made that up lol) If it was a similie it would say "Her eyes <em>were like the sea</em>" or "Her eyes <em>were as blue as the sea</em>"
