You say you have only felt something close to this once before. I say the same. We sit on the edge of the lock looking down into the water... We are about to get swept away in the fastest river with nothing to hold onto but each other. "Whatever happens," I ask you, "don't let go!" And you promise me to hold on. To hold on till the end.
