Answer 4

Beloved sweetheart bastard. Not a day since then

so hard I've dark green pebbles for eyes,
ropes on the back of my hand I could strangle with

Answer 5

My hateful beloved one, Ever since then, there was not a day I haven't wished him dead.

There is kind of a duality of a meaning behind her words. (Like because she lvoes him so much, that she is angry at him for being dead.) But I am not sure if you want to show duality or not. I am just paraphrasing it at face value. (Paraphrase means to put in your own words)

Answer 8

Or actually, you could also write it with your own opinion included since you are writing from a different speaker. Like:
She loves yet curses him, and not a day since had she haven't wished him dead.
Make sure you change first person to another point of view.
