I remember what love tasted like since you died
It tasted sweet and bitter, almost tart and sour
I was eating hatred
Love was buried somewhere else
In the deep mud of the forest
Your love disappeared
But your hatred remained

Just because you hate someone doesn't mean you stop loving them. Just because someone loves you doesn't mean they care for you...
