Tetractys 
Invented by Ray Stebbing, it is a 5 line poem with the 1st line having one syllable, the 2nd line two syllables, the 3rd line three syllables, the 4th line four syllables and the 5th line 10 syllables (1,2,3,4, 10) You may also(10,4,3,2,1) or a double Tetractys (1,2,3,4,10, 10,4,3,2,1) 

Death's bittersweet kiss has released your soul and stopped your pain at long last and still tears stain my face for I miss your smile, your laugh, though it's comforting to know you're pain-free. (Double Tetractys) 11-05-2020 Double Tetractys 5 Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Eve Roper photo #3

This is a teardrop of grieving and moment of consolation, Emilie - a story of a romance ended too soon! Congratulations on your very well deserved win my friend.

Beautifully sad Emile, sad when someone suffers with chronic pain, but dying may be a release of sorts but brings other deeply sorrowful consequences along with it. The contrasting emotions are well described, I think this will be a winner!
