Yes, it is a metaphor.
No. One word does not make a metaphor. "Bob is groaning" would be the closest you could get, but that is a statement, not a metaphor.

Yes, diamonds can cut glass, because diamonds are harder than glass.
No, the phrase "we're beautiful like diamonds in the sky" is not a simile. It is a metaphor, as it directly compares "we" to "diamonds in the sky" without using "like" or "as."
Oh, dude, swimming in a sea of diamonds in a metaphor means you're in a situation where everything around you is super valuable and precious, like, literally diamonds everywhere. It's like being in a dream where you're surrounded by bling, but, like, not really because diamonds are hard and you can't actually swim in them. It's just a fancy way of saying you're in a really fortunate or luxurious situation.
It is a metaphor to indicate that value is in the eye of the beholder.Having diamonds (seen as a valuable commodity) on the souls of ones shoes where no one can see them can say 'I don't care for riches', It can also say 'I am so wealthy I can do this'.

Spoon full of stars by the dim light of the stars like a shooting star

metaphor
A metaphor is a figure of speech that describes a subject by comparing it with a seemingly unrelated object. The night sky was as dark as a velvet blanket strewn with emeralds is an example of a metaphor.
Implied metaphor is when it gives you the metaphor but doesn't tell what the subject is. A regular metaphor tells you the subject of it.
