She's not coming back
You don't have to use this exact line in your story/poem, just use it as a theme. No swearing or blasphemy cause it's pointless and may turn away potential readers, including myself. Thanks ;)

dusting it off and polishing the glass
i turn the hourglass over
in anticipation
in hopes that possibly,
time will move for us again
my ears grow hot
not a grain stirs
“she’s..
not coming back”
my shadow whispers
with a twinge in my chest and
a bitter smile
i can’t help but whisper back
“i know”
