So I did a thingy about how silence feels, but my actual answer as to how it smells is at the bottom. Sorry. 😅

Something you used to love, but forgot about.

Something you lost, and haven’t quite found.

Something on the edge of your heart that you can’t quite feel.

Something that you know, but can’t remember.

Someone that you don’t know, but love.

Someone who found you when you were lost.

Someone that made you feel the beat of your heart.

Someone you wish you remembered.

Silence may be the only one,

That is there for you.

You might feel alone,

But you are never in solitude.

Alternatively, silence would smell like fresh sawdust, spiderwebs, and that metallic smell that either means rusty spoons or blood.
