A/N: Please don't flame me… Also, reviews are nice… if it isn't too much trouble…

Canada does not exist.
If one is never acknowledged,
Then no one can defend their existence.
If one is never acknowledged,
Then they can never be described.
To be called anything—kind, scary, cruel, cute—
Someone must give you those words.
If one is never acknowledged,
Then even if someone tried to describe them— their kindness, cruelty, favorite color, birthday—
They could not say those,
For they had not acknowledged the possessor of such, nor cared to try to discover them.
If a tree falls and no one can hear it, does it make a sound?
If a country dies and no one could tell they were ever living, did they ever live?
Canada decided that they could, and that it would be one of the most painful things imaginable.
He was lucky that wasn't his fate.
As long as one person acknowledges him, they can defend his existence, acknowledge them, hear their
cries, and burden his sorrow.
And he can do the same to them.
Prussia:
Can tell you Canada exists
Can tell you his favorite color
Can tell you his birthday
Can tell you about Canada's odd passive-aggressive arguments
Can tell you how much he loves hockey
Can tell you his deepest fears
Can tell you his darkest secrets
Can tell you how deeply they are in love...
Canada:
Can tell you Prussia exists
Can tell you his favorite color
Can tell you his birthday
Can tell you where all his scars are
Can tell you how he got them
Can tell you what his greatest fear is
Can tell you about his dreams
Can tell you how much he drinks
Can tell you about his smell
Can tell you what's behind his mask of 'awesome'
Can tell you how deeply they are in love...
Prussia wants to remain existing
Canada wants to begin existing
