This Is Life, by Amber Wallace (2011)
I guess it’s always gonna be this way
I guess I’ll never really be okay
Nobody listens to a word I say
Sure, tomorrow’s another day
But it’ll just be more of the same
I’ve got nothing left to live for
Every second chance is another slammed door
I wanna get out and go far away
Anywhere’s fine if it’s not this place
Every word, another lie
Can you see through my disguise?

Ruby's Notes
I actually really like this poem, mostly for the honesty it conveys. Amber Wallace is a Muggle, and the poem is about her experience with the Muggle education system. Personally, I don't know much about how it works, but I do hear a lot of complaints. That's all I have to say on this one.
