Oi! Where Are You?

Oi! Are you home I call and text
Come for a drink, two pubs next
Oi! Answer your phone
This town we should roam!

Life’s too short to stay indoors
So much to see and even more
Life’s over in the blink of an eye
Don’t let it pass you by!

I sit here writing this on my own
For those that should be bad to the bone
They just stay in and vegetate
No new life stories they’ll make

Before you know it, all is finished
The day is over, your life is banished
To a past you could’ve saved
Told a future you could’ve raved

Instead you wanted to settle down
A life so quiet in your little gown
What stories will you tell your kids
Probably about the life you miss
