The route of life

Just like a flash flood
it happened, unexpectedly.
A sudden heavy downpour
and I was swept off my feet.
Tossed into swirling rivers,
holding back my breath.
Thrashing as you pounded
blinded as you mounted.
You took me by surprise.
Never thought for a moment
that I could go off at a tangent,
find pleasure in the danger,
be at risk with a complete stranger,
whose depths I could not fathom,
and whose visit was unpredictable.
But just like the raindrops wash,
I had to feel the explosive rush,
brought close to fatal destruction,
Reason rescued me from me.
