simile&metaphors

SIMILE : A simile is using the words like or as in a sentence. For example ( shine bright like a diamond.) similes are important in writing because it makes a story more detailed and more interesting to read without using a simile the story would be boring and plain.
METAPHOR : A metaphor is a figure of speech that compares you to something  for example  (your an animal.) Metaphors are important because without it there is no story. there would just be words on a piece of paper.

    SIMILE:
“Friends are like chocolate cake
You can never have too many.
Chocolate cake is like heaven -
Always amazing you with each taste or feeling.
Chocolate cake is like life with so many different pieces.
Chocolate cake is like happiness, you can never get enough of it.”

METAPHORS: 

Good dudes - I know you love me like cooked food
Even though a nigga gotta move like a crook move
We was together on the block since free lunch
We should've been together having Four Seasons brunch
We used to use umbrellas to face the bad weather
So now we travel first class to change the forecast
Never in bunches, just me and you
I loved your point of view cause you held no punches
Still I left you for months on end
It's been months since I checked back in
We're somewhere in a small town, somewhere locking a mall down
Woodgrain, four and change, Armor All'd down
I can understand why you want a divorce now
Though I can't let you know it, pride won't let me show it
Pretend to be heroic, that's just one to grow with
But deep inside a nigga so sick
