A Sweet Poison


I seem to have loved you,
In numberless forms, numberless times,
In life after life, in age after age forever.
My spell-bound heart has made and
re-made the necklace of songs
That you take as a gift,
wear round your neck in your many forms,
In life after life, in age after age forever.


-Rabindranath Tagore

Quoted above is an extract from one of my favorite poems. All I have to say is that it can also act as a sweet poison! Read on to find out how?

    Hey atom,

    I have run out of superlatives to complement ur posts.Grrrrrrrrrrrreeeeeeaaaaaatttttttt!!!.

    I was a bit baffled by the PDF idea... neverthless nice one for a change... You are becoming obsessed with murdering one guy or the other in ur blogs.. Watch out guys.. here is An... our new serial killer... Just Joking!!! :-) Hey the plot was very good but i do believe that if u love someone so deeply and are angered by some of his/her actions even be it marrying or falling in love with someone else i dont think a true lover would take such drastic steps... May be he didnt love her becos she was a physcho..Well ! Opinions differ and so do people.. Great language and improvisation.. Easily ur best Post to date...

    P.S. I Dunno why u scrapped the part of us coming out with motives

    REal good way of writing it.. i liked the style a lot.. The best thing was the shortness and hence the crispness of it man..well done there

    Did i miss something i mean i got the motive ,i was expecting a how?
    So how did she do it??

    @ajay
    thx a lot dude for all the superlatives!
    Well im not talking abt true love here. Richa's brain is a bit disoriented and hence she does these things
    Feedback here means jus how u like it... it had nothing to do with the motive :-)

    @nivi
    Hey thx!
    Well how she did it is kinda left to the imagination of the reader...

    She could have injected the stuff or interchanged a cyanide rat killer aerosol with the inhaler instrument or she could have pried open the inhaler contents and dropped cyanide powder into it etc...its purely left to imagination

    Anu,such a gr888888 post yaar!!! Very crisp and stylish way of writing!!:) Again a wonderful suspense thriller:)

    Its true that she even though knew him since Sid was knee high to a grasshopper was forced to resort to such drastic n knee-jerk response in dis kinda circumstances. True love when tinted , propels a person to react in an unexpected manner s absolutely agreeable.

    Twist was very good towards d end!! ..Never felt Richa wud ve done dis..
    The whole enchilada was interestin n grippin!!Way to go!! Ur best post till date!!
