All these are types of metaphors, which is a figurative language that describes an object or action in a way that isn't literally true, but helps explain the idea or make a comparison.
A metaphor says one thing is another thing, it equates these two things in order to compare or make a symbolism.
All of these excerpts create a poetic tone and a colourful mood.
The purpose of the semicolon in the example is to join <span>two related independent clauses (option B)
In this case, the semicolon is used instead of a conjunction. They are generally related however, the second part might not be an explanation or clarification.
the semicolon could have been replaced by BECAUSE perfectly well.
- </span><span>Leticia has to leave early this afternoon because she has a doctor's appointment.</span>
if you could list them with some separation or order i could help you out
What about a girl that falls in love with a guy and everything is perfect but it turns out that everything she thought was happening was all just hallucinations or daydreams because she had been kidnapped by this psycho guy and that was the only way her brain could deal with it idk
Or how about a a girl and her son moves in with her boyfriend and she thinks he's great but then her son goes missing and at night she thinks she hears him yelling but everywhere she looks, he's not there, so she thinks she losing her mind. But it turns out that the guy she loves has been drugging her and he killed her son and she has no idea until tries to open this shed that actually has her son's body in it to look for something, and then her "perfect" boyfriend shows his true colors and is all creepy and she finds out everything idk how it would end tho.
Or maybe you could write about a woman whose abusive husband dies and she is kind of relieved but sad in a way. And then she ends up moving on and falls in love with this guy but then the ghost of her husband comes back saying she replaced him and idk
These might actually be horrible or idk I hope they're not. I was just brainstorming. Maybe these at least help you come up with an idea. Good luck.
