This dark night, my dear friend, is fearsome with clouds. Again and again, appearing, the lightning startles me.

Imagine a really dark night, my dear, where heavy clouds make it even scarier. Every now and then, a flash of lightning cuts through the darkness, appearing suddenly and then vanishing, making you jump each time. It's like the night itself is playing tricks, with those bright, sudden flashes surprising you again and again. It paints a picture of a stormy, unsettling night.
