Séduit ar la Fleur Vénéneuse
Entranced by the Poisonous Flower
Can you see the rose vine twining,
Around this heart.
Blooming from its perfect bud.
But upon closer inspection,
I see how it isn't a beautiful
Blood red, burgundy rose,
But deep maroon
With hints of weeping black.
I can see
The sharp invisible thorns
Pricking this heart.
I wonder is the person
Feeling a pain in their heart,
Or numbness spread throughout
Caused by the poison of this deadly rose.
Oh, this heart, whose is it?
... ... ...
Ah, no wonder the heart
That has been subdued
By the flower is mine.
