Answer:

simile

Explanation:

The sentence above presents a simile as a figurative language. The simile is characterized by comparing two different elements that have no relation to each other, but that express something that can be related. In the sentence above, we can see that the poet compared the ability to "last forever" with "fairytale monsters". This comparison was made between two different elements, as the simile approaches.
