SNS Topic/Subscription created through Terraform not showing up

I'm trying to create SNS topics and subscriptions through Terraform and it appears to be successful when doing so. However, I can never see them in the GUI for some reason. I know that email subscriptions aren't fully supported through Terraform so I thought that may be the reason it's not showing up even though I receive the confirmation email, but I then tried another route using a CloudFormation template by following the steps in this link:

http://aws-cloud.guru/terraform-sns-topic-email-list/

Same issue though. Terraform says it created the SNS topic/subscription and I receive a confirmation email. But when I go under SNS in the GUI as my root account, I don't see any SNS topics. Here's the code for the first test case I did:

resource "aws_sns_topic" "sysadmin_alerts" {
  name            = "sysadmin-alerts-topic"
}

resource "aws_sns_topic_subscription" "sysadmin_alerts_email_target" {
  topic_arn = aws_sns_topic.sysadmin_alerts.arn
  protocol  = "email"
  endpoint  = "fake@email.com"
}

Is there something I'm missing in the process to create these via Terraform?
