Similes use the word "like" and metaphors don't. But both give description in unlike terms.
"The boy is a pig" (above)
He isn't really an animal but acts that way.
"I could eat a horse." Not really a horse but a big meal.
"Trying to shovel smoke with a pitchfork in the wind." A John Lennon lyric meaning futility.
The boy that you see
He is a pig
But he is only three
I didnt know he could be so big
