Why would you. Smell is based on receptors picking up particles, sight is based on reflected light, Taste is based on tongue receptors (and to a larger degree, smell) hearing is based on vibrating pressure waves.
None of those rely on touch. You don't feel the particles that interact with the receptors for smell/touch (to a degree more on that later) You don't feel the waves your ears pick up to make sound, you don't feel the reflected light needed for sight. It's all independent from feel.
The more on that part. To a degree you DO feel "smells", but only very powerful ones (ammonia for example). My grandma was in a car wreck in her early 20's and lost the ability to smell. She could still feel strong chemical fumes. Though put two chemicals side by side that produce the same feeling and she'd never be able to tell which was which. She had no way at all of distinguishing the characteristics. She could just feel "in her nose" that she was breathing in concentrated/caustic chemical fumes..

With my face against the floor I can’t see who knocked me out of the way. I don’t want to get back up but I have to so it might as well be today. Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear. I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear. You can't wake up, this is not a dream. You're part of a machine, you are not a human being With your face all made up, living on a screen. Low on self esteem, so you run on gasoline

yes but have you ever lost your sense of touch, or any of your senses?
i know when i get really high on psyches the sense of touch is the first to go, once that goes your hearing and seeing slowly fade away, while your sense of smell and taste stick around longest for me. although it happens slowly at first by the time the process is done it feels lik youve been ripped out of your body and flung though the universe.
it can be a scary place being so far away from your senes, after leaving them and being so grateful to be able to come back to them, ill tell you right now that there is nothing that you can feel more than being in the senses you have and using them to the fullest potential. i absolutley love being able to see, hear, feel, smell and tate, absolutley fucking love it, i dont like not being able to feel, it doesnt feel so good.
-------------------- its that bitter-sweet-sour, electric-smooth-twang. everything you ever have, are. or will feel along with every emotion, joy, hate, love, fear or aspiration burning down your nerves and into the fabric of your place in this existence at ten thousand degrees above and below zero will you find yourself wondering if you've been dead or alive this whole time. being born over and over only to die over and over hoping the wheel stops in the same place it started when you spun it, and when it finally does and you can step back and take a nice deep breath you realize how beautiful life is, remember, wake up to the most beautiful day of your life every single day, its just the way.
