Metaphors are when a writer uses dissimilar objects or people to explain a complicated concept or emotion. They can also be helpful to the reader when they are struggling to make sense of something that isn't clear. For example, when Alicia Keys sings "This girl is on fire," she's using a metaphor of flames to convey the idea that there is a force that can't be stopped. paroles chanson
