paved roads

My mind is taking me down the road of time. The road is paved with regret. We are driving backwards. We wave good-bye to apathy and his faithless friend. We turn our heads away from arrogance who sits on the front porch of selfishness.
We stop and get out and run through love-filled fields where stocks of joy, peace, and hope grow.
But it's not the same. Why would it be without our heart? So we look for it and find it. It sits at the end of the road. The road that is paved with regret. Why did we pave this road so? And how do we keep from driving on it?
We drove away from it in order to drive forward without it. But go any further back and we will encounter it. Look ahead through the past and it's all we can see. Where to go, I do not know.
Lord, please take me somewhere.
