This is not an English word. Perhaps you meant to ask what a METAPHOR was. That is a figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable.

What is the matephor for soft?

I assume you are looking for a 'metaphor' for soft. There could be any number of metaphors you might use to describe how soft something or someone is. Here are a few examples: Kitten soft - which you might use to describe a scarf or some other luxurious item of clothing. Rather unkindly people are sometimes described as being 'soft as sh*te', or perhaps less offensively ' as soft as butter' Perhaps more poetically you could describe a touch as being 'as soft as an angel's kiss', or 'as soft as angel tears'. You might hear someone talk about 'a soft option' in which case the word 'soft' itself becomes the metaphor to help clarify the quality of the option. Basically if you can think of something which has a soft quality such as marshmallow, duck down, water from a mountain stream, a piece of music, a whispy cloud, etc. you have the basis of a metaphor.
