Is the comparison in line six a simile or metaphor?

To determine if the comparison in line six is a simile or a metaphor, we need to look for specific language. A simile uses "like" or "as" to make a comparison, while a metaphor directly states that one thing is another without those words. If line six uses "like" or "as," it's a simile; if it does not but implies a direct equivalence, it's a metaphor. Without the actual text, I can't definitively categorize it.
