If I could choose my place to die, <br />it would be there, <br />my head in the cradle of your shoulder, <br />bodies entwined, <br />my hand caressing the soft fur on your chest. <br /> <br />If I could choose my last minute, <br />it would be there, <br />your soft whispers of love in my ear <br />while I breathe you in, <br />lost in the awe of us. <br /> <br />If I could choose where to take my last breath, <br />it would be there, <br />hearts matching rhythms, <br />eyes mirroring the wonder <br />of what we'd just shared. <br />If I could choose.<br /><br />C.J.
