Speak Your Truth “I will not cry!†She said to I. “We must not lie or lest we die. “For tears to fall from eyes so small, women who crawl grown men who bawl “scrambling around until they drown, tears running down from upturned frowns. “Now honestly,†she said to me “can you not see how they will flee “when you speak truth from your past youth? Their lies uncouth reveal the spoof “that they have played from day to day keep you away and make you stay. “So do not cry!†she said to I, “and never lie or their game buy. “You be a sleuth as a proud youth life will be smooth just speak your truth!†|

I see your thought with this poem but the stanza with 'or their game buy' lost me in the structure. Like how each stanza rhymed on each line very difficult in getting a thought across when you do this but you were able to and this is good.
