Jack and Jill

In old nursery rhyme
of Jack and Jill,
we were told how
after climbing their
hill Jack fell first and Jill
followed close behind.
But, did Jack fall blindly,
tripping over two left feet?
Or did Jill push him,
angry over a truth he
chose to confess?
And once she watched him
tumble down,
did guilt consume
her heart and drive her
towards the same fate?
For when one love falls
so does the other in
Defeat.
