Any Lovecraft (maybe Poe?) nerds around?

20 years ago I read a short story where the narrator (or their romantic partner?) painfully turns into a plant right at the end.

There was a graphic description of the character slowly receding from worldly matters until one night under the moon they stood still, struck a pose like a plant and then turned into one.

I don't remember much else from it, just the end that stuck with me all these years.

The description reminds me of „Rappaccini‘s Daughter“ by Nathaniel Hawthorne. This is American Gothic at its finest.
Maybe it was a modern take of this one?
