The sentence "She lived in a sea of grief" is an example of metaphor because in this, the author uses the words "lived in a sea of grief" to express the extreme sadness of a woman, and therefore the author describes a specific feeling by using a figurative idea as "sadness" and "sea of grief" are similar.
