red underwear

some mornings you can't decide
what color underwear
to wear.
you spread them out on the bed
to help you make
your selection.
grey, blue, black, white.
red.
it surprises you that you have
a pair of red
underwear.
a valentine's gift
from someone.
they are silky with little
white hearts on them.
buttons too.
they have the faint scent of
cinnamon on them
for some reason.
no.
maybe black today.
