Fear Quote by Urvashi Balasubramaniam
““I wander the pathway, Where will it go? Will I be able to go there, Fast or slow? Who has made it? Why is it here, Is there something dangerous, That will soon appear? Should I be excited? Or possibly full of fear? What should be my emotion, As I draw near? Where will the pathway lead me? Unanswered questions in my head, But I will only find out, As I go ahead.””
