The train car clanked as it went over a new rail, it woke up Canada. Her honey eyes scanned the room to only be met with the sad reality that last night truly did happen. She sighed and gotten up, laying against the wall of the train car. She took out a sleeveless turtle neck that had dark hints of red and black jeans. She put on black runners and a red neckless that she found at the bottom of her bag. She walked over to the open door and sat down with her back agents the rim.  Thoughts of the previous day swarmed her head, but one she couldn't shake.

'They'll forget me because I'm different.' 

She couldn't help but have a clear tear run down her red sides of her face. Her arm laid on top of her knee while her other leg laid straight and her free arm laid beside her. 

"I am hanging in a train car insted of talking this out.."

"I could stay right here or disappear. And nobody'd even notice at all." She muttered. Wiping tears that spilled.

"I'm a creeper in a train  'cause my buddy kinda left me alone..But I'd rather travel than stand awkwardly. Or pretend to check a text on my phone." She slightly chuckled to herself.

"Everything felt fine, when I was half of a pair.." She smiled, remembering when she was a kid. When she and America would spend hours outside until it was time to go back inside. Her tail curled and went up In the air before then slowly falling.

"And through no fault of mine, there's no other half there." She told herself.

"Now I'm just.. Travelling in a train car. Traveling in a train car to escape the truth.Forget how long its been." She said quietly, hating the truth of reality.

"I'm just Travelling  in a train car. Travelling  in a train car to escape the truth .. No, you can't come in."  She said shakily.

"I'm waiting here till I arrive. And picking at grout as I softly grieve. I'm just.                              Canada who you don't know.                                                                                                                            Canada flying solo.                                                                                                                                                  Canada in here by herself...

All by herself..."

She hated the truth, being forgotten was one thing but being alone was another.

"I am hiding, But there out there. Just ignoring all our history, Memories get erased And I'll get replaced. With a newer cooler version of me." 

"And I hear a river Singing along to chirping birds through the door. And my feelings sink Cause it makes me think. Now there's no one to listen to the birds with anymore."  She remembered the time America and her would spend the whole day outside when they where younger. Knowing that will never happen again, not the hang out. 

Being with her brother.

"Now I'm  just..Travelling in a train car. Traveling in a train car. I half regret the tears, now I'm just Traveling in a train car. Traveling in a train car to escape the truth."

"As I choke back the tears. I'll wait as long as I need, 'Til my face is dry Or I'll just blame it on weed Or something in my eye!" She had a flash back to when she had an addiction.

"And I can't help but yearn For a different time. And then I look in the mirror, And the present is clear. And there's no denying I'm just..."

Her tears got faster and it took over her ability to talk.

"Traveling in a train car." She muttered.

"Is there a sadder sight. Traveling in a train car to escape the truth.This is a heinous time."

"I wish I stayed at home instead Watching snow fall.  Or wish I offed myself instead. I Wish I was never born."

"I'm just Canada. Who's a loner, So she must be a stoner. Rides a PT Cruiser.God, shes such a loser. Canada flying solo. Who you think that you know.. Canada in the traveling by herself..All by herself.. All by herself

When all you know about me is my name. Awesome visit I'm so glad a came...."

The day continued with tears. Until night once again.
