[ WP ] 'They said they 'd return when the world needed heroes again . They lied . '

It's been almost 3 years now. I never understood why they left. I've been thinking about them, a lot. Almost every day. It has been really tough since then. The world is just darker. I can feel it. 
 
 They said they'll be there when we need them. But I've been calling for them everyday. I never got a response. I guess they're not coming back. I guess... they lied. 
 
 My brother does n't really understand. He's too young. I do n't even know if he remembers them, he was only 2 years old when they left. But I do. They used to be around, they helped a lot. The world seemed to be a better place with them. It never got this dark, there was always someone caring for us. There was always hope. 
 
 Of course they were n't perfect. But they were our heroes. Some days they just made it worse, but in the end, we needed them and we loved them. 
 
 It's been really hard for me without them. Going through puberty, struggling with depression and bullies... Stupid nursery school. Suicidal thoughts, mental breakdowns... Ugh... 
 
 I did n't have anyone to count on. And yet I had to be brave and strong for my brother. He's busy growing up, making friends and he might not notice, but he sometimes feels their absence too. 
 
 I miss them, Yeah I really miss my parents.
