Almost before he knows it, there she is again, the figurative monster under the bed that determinedly invades his thoughts. A trojan horse invited in cloaked by a false promise of happy thoughts and memories. Helpless to stop the sudden wave of emotions threatening to drown him, he merely treads water and prays for the light at the end of the tunnel he knows must come eventually.
