What figure of speech is "I feel the weight of the world on my shoulder" ? I'm thinking simile.

OpenStudy (ayyookyndall):

I'm thinking incorrect! A simile uses the word like or as and is being compared to something Example: My dog is as dirty as the sewer pipes.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

simile is using like or as isnt it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I believe that it's a metaphor actually :)

Oh okay!! Thank you!(:

No problem at all friend :)
