FIGURATIVE LANGUAGE

Figurative- representing by means of a figure or symbol

Figure of speech- a expression as a metaphor or simile, using words in a non-literal sense or unusual way.
Imagery- mental images.
Trope-figurative language or a word used in a figurative sense.

They are all saying that you don't really mean it literally but you mean in a figurative way.
