Making a comparison between two things using 'like', 'as', or 'than'. It's something compared to something else.
Example[:
Stones; heavy like the love you've shown,
Solid as the ground we've known,
And I just wanna carry on,
We took it from the bottom up,
And even in a desert storm,
Sturdy as a rock we hold,
Wishing every moment froze,
Now I just wanna let you know..
[Pyramid - Charice]
Significance[:
Like a metaphor, I think similes are important in the same way. Except it's less like the something we're comparing it to, because we use comparing words, and we don't emphasize on how much something is like something else, like metaphors do.
